Submaster mixing (LEDs)

Hello Ynot

Are you just recording single parameters into the subs? So set the Red to full and then say [Channel Numbers] {Red} [Record] [Sub] [X] [Enter]. Then just do the same for the other  parameters.

Hope this answers your question?

Hmmm...

No - Bringing channel master levels to full, then setting RED to full on the colour picker then[Channel Numbers]  [RECORD[ [SUB] [X] [Enter]...

I'm guessing that's not the way then...

 

You didn't follow Nick's syntax.  You left out the {RED} part, which would be crucial if you wanted to just record the RED parameter.

 

Also, even after you do that, you are going to realize that bringing up the RED submaster isn't going to get you any output unless you have the unit's intensity up as well.

 

Hope that helps.

Hmmmm.....

Ok -  It works for me outline. Bring the channels to full setting Red to Full and then [Channels] [RED] (using the CIA to select red on the command line) Record sub X. If you don't put Red before record you will record the whole channel.

Does that work how you want...... 

@Xander - You mistake me - I was describing what I'd been trying thus far. :)

Yet I do believe that's sussed it - it was the RED (eg) in the CIA that was the kicker - thanks.

I'm trying to subtly play with this whilst running the gig at the moment - fortunately it's the sort where I can get away with some judicious fade ins/outs, though I am having to take care!!

Dragging up an old topic... Haven't needed to run from subs of late, but me being dense again, referred back here and though I've typed in just what was above, I can't seem to get the colours alone to behave properly on the subs.... Has any syntax changed in recent releases??

it hasn't changed.

two things to note:
- if you already have too many parameters on Sub y, Chan x Red Record Sub y Enter will not overwrite the whole content with the new content. delete the sub first (Delete Sub y Enter) and then record again.
- you need to change the home values for your colors. for your application you need them at 0 but they default to 100. either edit the fixture personality in Patch > Fixtures, or record the color values at 0 into a preset and then make this preset your Home Preset (Setup > Show > Show Settings > Home Preset. (the latter is not possible on an Element)
