  1. Please, can frog 2 get some more advance midi control going on... Time code is okish but I need to trigger cue via midi bit like the jester... On cue set up we could have midi triggers and we can select channel, Command (note, program change, pitch, etc..) vaule.....function (go cue, back cue, pause cue, go cue x,release stack)... UDK set up, midi channel, note, UDF setup - mide channel, note, velocity

    UDK Fade times -

    Myself and the Assembly rooms are both having the same prob with frog 2. n thru n @ x% (fade time 3 secs) > rec udk > Udk setup > latch Data does not fade up in 3 sec, it just snaps!!!
  3. It dead easy to fix I had the same prob. on the fixture file you need to swap the data on the pan and tilt as it wrong. i.e. Low PAn and High pan are the wrong way ......low til and high tilt are also the wrong way You need to change the channel data... I hope that makes sence

    Auto pallets

    I understand that its important that the colour pallets match between fixtures.. i.e. colour yellow of a mac 250 wash is the same yellow as a mac 600. etc... However i have some fixtures that have colours that come no where near the auto pallet yellow. But is there a yellow colour in the fixture which will do.... Since i always use these fixtures in our venue. i would like to somehow change the data in our fixture file so that when the auto pallets are created the "yellowish colour" is auto palleted to the yellow pallet..... Also.....I have a slection of led pars..and the auto pallet for colours work fine..but not on the effects pallets... i.e effetcts like...chase, rainbows etc dont appy to the led fixtures...I dont understand why this is?

    Auto pallets

    is it possible to adjust the parameters that create an auto pallet using....desk, fixture editor....
  6. I wanted to add some fixtures with colours to the auto pallets colours.....Selected fixture (pilot 250) > selected colour > Record > merge > colour 2 > Recorded Then when i ....mac 250 wash + Mac 250+ And Pilot 250 colour 2 The pilot Changes colour but the mac's don't (they did before i merged the pallet)........Basically the merge function no longer mergers
  7. Have a latch UDK on page one....I Select it, light outputs......go to page two. The UDK on page one is switch off... weird...... programed desk....fade time where missing the . after a reboot al fade times had reset 2 0.00
  8. just upgraded to 4 and UDF dont work or UDK on certian fixtures.....i.e. i raise the fader and nothing...ahhhh
  9. Thats exactly what im after.... i.e. so i could open cue stack one and lock it, and open up cue stack window 8. but still have a cue stack windows that would change if you select it. Kev

    Arkaos

    I saw arkoas on another desk...it pulled the images off arkoas into the desk. so u just pressed the touchscreen jpeg to select the clip .(showed a jpeg of the video clips as well)...+ it showed the main prievew from arkaos on the desk mointor.......all done via cat 5 It would be fab if it was on frog 2 ... put it this way I would buy one of those other desk over a frog for that feature. Thanks
  11. Frog 2 has X amount of cue stacks..... It be really handy if we could see that data of more then one cue stack at a time. For example in the last show i did. Cue stack one.....had all the lx cues Cue stack two ...... ran a chase Cue stack three .....all the video cues. it was really hard not beeing able to see all the cue stacks i was running the show on at the same time.

    chase

    I may be missing something, but how do you change the fade up - hold - fade down on a chase.....on off, fade up snap off, snap up fade down, cross fade?
  13. I keep on having the same prob.....patching 2 dmx channels to one fixture channel. results in random results......

    Active UDF

    If i have channel data stored in a udf such as mac with a P/C/B/i and some generics. when you select active udf the generic stay on but the P of the movers go home and the I goes to 0............
  15. I have found that the screen simply stops working when the main control window is in it... ie soft keys cant be seen and the command line........

    UDF 3 and all UDF

    I have found that if i rec channel data or anything to UDF 3 on any page, after a bit it wont output the data???? I have also found that when the desk is turned on and off, group data stored to UDF and UDK no longer apper to be programed.....
  17. Everytime i busk a show this seems to happen.....
  18. How do you make page hold over work??? Ive turned it on in the setup menu......but it does not hold over.......

    Frog box

    Hello Just wondering..... is there any way of changing a patch on a frog box..... 2ndly anyway i can plug in a pc and use phantom frog. My prob is that on site no one has a floppy drive?
  20. Rack 6 it is then, i wanted to remove the patch bay and have nice, tidy, chili dimmers. But no...... im stuck with 100+ patch bay.....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
  21. Looking at buying aprox 100+ ways of chilli dimmers but is there any way to set them to no dim, so that i can power moving lights? or we might be getting some install 6 can they do this???
  22. Hmmm, First time I really busked on this desk and was a bit unhappy I wanted the main page and pallets in the touch screen. During the show I selected the screen, but I was using the flash buttons on the udf, and every time I flashed the main screen came up, rather then leaving up the pallets... Every so often the touch screen would fade out a bit, and the desk crashed Created a chase, selected it to be beat. Same fixtures different chase order again beat. So I use my first chase, its nice and slow. It’s on playback 1. I then want the 2nd chase to run really fast. So I press the go as fast as I could, this is playback 2 and it’s set to 0%......playback one stops. Is there a way around this? On the upside great job on the effects section, would like to see more like seesaw i.e. one fixture pans left the other right……..
  23. This desk is great but some of the directors I've work with keep asking for "normal light" but I cant find a button on the desk that does this!!!!! It be really good if i could have a "normal light" button, .....also ive been asked if the stage could be lit in gray..so a button to make gray light would be great................................
  24. It would be rather handy, if we could assign volume to a UDF or even a fixture. Have to say i like this feature a lot interms with show control...i.e. the desk can now control a cd, arkos, lights all that is missing is some good midi..... Is there any plans to allow user to output midi commands from a cue stack.....
  25. lxkev

    PAN function.

    Some desk op, like to set up the moving lights so that stage left and right fixtures move oppisite to each other i.e. pan into the stage and then pan out. Others like them all to go left or all of them to go right etc... Is there any way to swap between these two ways of working on this desk, without changing the desk pan/tilt setup?
