Effects, need way more help.

Still programming my exsting show from other software into the hog.., but need some help!!!!:aargh4:

I cannot figure out how to create effects properly. I have tried to work with the Effects engine, and I have read everything in the manual but I need help.

I have multiple MAC 250+s that I need to do a "circle" with pan/tilt. When I choose the "built-in" effects for circle, it dose not resemble anything like a circle on the Pan tilt. I have tried to adjust the effects, and set "underling parms" for the pan and tilt channel but nothing.


Same issue goes with any of my automated heads, Mac 250+ Mac 300, 575 Studio Colors.
My old software would say "circle", and then I would choose how large it would be. But just can't get it in the effects engine.


What am I doing wrong?

    Hey, it's easy, you just need to do this more often.

    For circal effect, move the fixture to position that hey will blind you i mean they "look at you", then open the effect engine, choose "Circle" on the library, now set the speed to 6 Bpm (a solid speed, the mac's go crazy in high speed), set the size to 0%.
    now you will see them at the first pos, they blind you, now...move slowly the Size encoder and you will start to see the circle effect clearly, use Fan+offset encoder to make it move nice.

    Hope i halp
