rapid color change

hi all,
on my current show I need a similar effect to the first bit of the SHOWPIX demo video(attached) where there is rapid color changing for about 2 seconds. So far I have made one cuelist with ten cues of different colors, put the delay to .5s and set the macro to GM. The problem I am having is that the macro is firing without looking at the delay and it skips straight to the end of the cuelist where the lights fade out

any ideas?:confused:


by the way i'm using varilite Vl2000 wash lights

  • Also fixtures generally have a continuous colour scroll as part of their protocals. I know martin MACs definitly have becuase I use them often. If you set the colour channel to around the DMX value or the continuous scroll, then adjust the encoder slowly to get it to the highest scroll speed. This is usually very fast. Just play with the fixtures protocals, it is the only way to learn effectivly.

    I did this with the effects engine and success! The only parts of the O/S I wasnt sure of was timecode, cue timing and effects. I contacted members on the forum and asked them to help. They did and thanks to them, the issue is sorted with my effects knowledge. I re-read the manual on cue timing then sorted some timecode training with my local product support specialist.

    If you need anymore help, dont hesitate to post. 99.9% of members on here are happy to help. :D . Me included because I will always appriciate the help given to me by certain people. These are all listed in the Thanks thread in the wholehog 3 general discusion.


    Hope this helps :)
