    So now we get rig plan layout with pixel mapping an new effects in the nex Update 😀🙂🙃

    This would be great. I‘m waiting for this for years now 😏

    especially Pixel mapping.

    But also effect! I still don‘t understand why someone would want to change effect speed and size  if you chose your fader to be „Fader controls effect“!

    Maybe an easy „fix“ would be to create a option in the desk defaults settings if you want the fader to control fx speed or size or both.

  2. Hi all,

    we just created a showfile for an online event and discovered a strange behavior in regard of MTC using offsets. Unfortunately I can not remember if this behaved the same on the previous OS version.

    This is our setup:
    We have a PC running the "timeloard" software connected via MIDI to our ORB XF running zeros 7.10
    On the timeloard we have 16 songs. All of them have an offset of 1 hour (so 1st starting with 00:00:00:00, 2nd with 01:00:00:00 and so on)
    On our ORB XF we have 16 cue stacks representing the 16 songs. Each cues in theses stacks are triggered with the related MTC offset

    This is what happens:
    if we start 1st song, first stack gets triggered 
    If we after this start 2nd song, 2nd stack gets triggered 
    and so on...
    So if we play all songs in the "correct" order the stacks are called correctly

    BUT:
    If nothing was played so far and we for instance play song 15 (with offset 14:00:00:00) ALL stacks from 1 up to 15 get triggered simultaneously! 

    So every time you start a random song all stacks with offsets less then the offset of the played song get triggered as well.

    I think this is not how it should be?!

    Did anyone experienced something similar?

    Best regards

  3. Hi all

    I just started to prepare our desk for a new show based on 7.10 and realized it especially on recording a cue is pretty laggy. It sometimes really takes some seconds until the desk responds again. 

    Does somebody else experience this?

    Best regards

  4. Hi all

    I hope this was not already added but I‘d have a which/proposal for color fanning on legacy devices with no multitouch available:

    What about if you just could click the two „endpoints“ of the color range one after the other? 

    I know you could do it also with a connected Tablet but I think this might be not to hard to implement and would give some extra value 😉

    Best regards

    @Sven76 you should ask Jon to put all of your 6 ticks on "Pixel Mapping"! 😝

    Greetings to you!

    I already thought about this... 😄 

     

    One thing I would also love to see (but of course after Pixel Mapping 😛 )  is to have the ability to have a "FX speed master" and a "FX size master". I never understood why the both are combined and why I would want to have an FX "smaler" just because I want to have it "slower" - if you get my thought... 😉

  6. Hi all,

    cool Idea. Let's hope the ZerOS gods are merciful to us 😉

    My most missing features are:

    - Pixelmapping/Matrix (yes it is in W.I.P. but really really need it. The sooner the better)
    - Independent "real" FX-Masters to independently scale FX Size and FX Speed. I never understood why speed and size were bound together.

    Best regards

  7. Hi Edward

    I was already able to test your suggestion.
    Unfortunately it didn't work at all.

    Still, when I press "Automatically create Effect palettes" only the [No Effect] button gets created.

    I tried the installation 2 times and even did a fresh download and a deep formatting of the stick. No change at all.

    I then tried to create a FX palette by using Phantom. Phantom was able to create a palette. But after transferring the showfile to the desk non of those FX buttons were usable (all grey).

    Any further Ideas?

    I also wrote an email to support including my showfile because I'm really desperate at the moment 😞

    Thank you and best regards
    Sven
      

  8. Hi all

    I'm having a huge issue with the FX palette on our ORB XF running ZerOS 7.9.5:
    After updating the console to 7.9.5 many FX of our show are not working anymore. Many of them are even "grey" instead of "blue" now, so that I can't even select them (for instance a circle for a moving head or color FX for our RGB(W) fixtures).

    I then thought: "OK, lets get rid of the old stuff and build it up new from scratch".
    But with that it got even worth: I deleted all FX on the palette and pressed the "automatic create..." button. But then only  very view FX were created, they got spread all over the palette and even them do not work!

    Does anybody have a similar experience?
    What could i do wrong?
    Is there a solution or a workaround?

    BTW: Even on the Phantom the automatic creation is not working

     

    Thanks in advance
    Best regards

    Sven
