Selador ICE & EOS mixing styles recorded into Cues?

Hi All,

Just trying to get my head around a non show critical thing we are seeing with our Selador Ice fixtures.  And came across this little anomaly which i did not think was possible with the way the Eos works.  It seems to happen throughout our show file.

I was under the assumption you either mixed in RGCBI or Hue/Sat   and only one set of these values would record into a cue.  As shown in the snapshot below, there is values for both mixing styles in the cues.  Am i misunderstanding the concept or is this some sort of bug that has snuck into the show file.   I believe the fixtures on a previous version of the show were RGB fixtures which have been changed to ICE fixtures, so the mixing values got a bit messy, but matched.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. 

 

Cheers

  • Andrew,

    Hue/Sat are virtual values that the console computes from your RGCBI values.  The console can also do the inverse calculation.  Because they are just different representations of the same data, but sets of values show up in the cues.

    Whatever parameter you used to set the color will determine which set is active in your cue.  You can toggle which is active via the {format} soft button (don't know where it is off the top of my head).  In terms of storage, there is no difference.  It does matter if you are doing a crossfade -- are you fading each LED color / dichroic flag or are you fading the hue/sat?  Some fades look better in one format and some in the other.
