Right now I'm faced with the task of running 4 ColorForce 72s on a SmartFade ML board. My problem is this, for those unfamiliar with the ColorForce 72s, they are divided up into 12 sections that are able to be independently controlled. My goal is to be able to control each section individually.
What I would like to do is be able to use the SmartFade board to create a simple intensity effect where starting on one side of the light bar it will dim, the channels (1-12) in a sine wave fashion.
Among my other issues are the fact that I can't get the ColorForce lights to mix colors in a controlled manner.
For instance I am fine with the way they mix colors when bringing up a memory fader while another one is currently running. That part works in my opinion pretty great. The problem comes when I don't have any faders up and try to bring one up.
Take this as an example, I am running a show and go finish out a song in which I have up bright white on the color bars. Then at the end of the song I blackout for a video, then when the video is over I bring up a fader that sets all the bars to red for a speaker on stage.
The issue there is that when I bring up the fader white was still in memory so it starts the color as white while i'm bring up the fader and then fades into red.
Basically i'm looking for help on any or all of these situations, any help is greatly appreciated!
