ColorBlast TRX on Expression 3

Hi there -

No, we don't have a personality written for this fixture. However, it's quite simple to build one yourself using the Expression Personlity Editor that comes with the Expression Off-Line software, available here. There's a quick guide as well that describes the process of building a personality, available here.

Expression has a limited number of usable parameter names, none of which are "red", "green", "blue", "amber" or "white", so you'll have to decide how you want to control those parameters. Parameters do not get dimmer curves.Since the fixtures are not complicated, only 3 or 5 parameters, I suggest playing a bit to find the mode of the fixture that will work best for you in your circumstances.

I hope this helps -

Thanks -

Sarah

Thanks Sarah.  I took your advice and built a personality for the ColorBlast TRX's using PersEdit 1.2.

Now the problem is getting it to load on the Expression 3 (ver. 3.1)

I'm running Windows Vista (64-bit) with Parallels on a iMac.  I saved the personality to a diskette but it doesn't seem to be loading properly on the Exp.3

The most common problem with loading personalities stems from the dos filesystem used on the floppy.  Make sure the file is named using a maximum of 8 letters or numbers with no spaces followed by the extension ".prs" 

If that doesn't sort it out, I'd suggest giving a call to your local ETC Tech Service.
