[movers brightness onto channels]

Hi, i want to put my movers brightness onto channels, just for ease. is there any way of writting the fixture data so that you can have brightness on say, channel 24.

 

I remember someone mentioning it a while ago.

and i guess i will have to write a new fixture file for each fixture!!

 

Cheers, Mike

[Output Screen]

hi there, only just noticed this so it might just be on OS 10.4.(fatfrog)

 

when in the outputs screen the GO button on the keyboard does not work, but on the desk the GO button is fine.

 

Thanks

[Abstract Futurescans]

yea you will need to put a phase converter in, as abstract swapped the pins round. presumably so you only use there controllers. i did have the same prob

[ZERO88 ACCESSORIES]

[Combined Monitor Screens]

i wouldn't of thort so, as the idea of pallet lock is to lock the pallet window onto the screen.

 

were you thinking of having, say the memory button, that when held down would flash back to the cue stack? could be nice, but its not a feature that i know about.

[Mambo Frog]

The Mambo Frog has 1024 channels, and can control 96 intelligent fixtures.

Along side the conventional memory stack and fader-based submasters, the Mambo Frog provides a bank of 48 ‘SX’ playbacks.

 

i think the mambo was the last in the frog series!!

This is before the frog 2 of course!

how cute is this little dude

[Could someone please walk me through programming a chase?]

you can program a chase directly on a submaster and playback it with the sub. to do this you press the submaster button, then select the desired submaser number and repeat the steps to create a chase.

 

really??

I always thought you had to transfer chases from a memory?? dont think you can program straite to sub?

or is this the new software?

 

i cant try it either :-(

[Fat Frog Speed Control]

hi, there are a couple of options i can think of:

 

you could you the manual Bass option, start off at the set speed, then during the song tap the step button twice(quickly).

and then tap the speed back after the fast bit has finished?

 

or you can use different memorys/sub's.

one as the normal chase one as the fast chase and then 'back to the level you want'

 

or if its generics, do it the old fashioned way with the flash buttons!!

 

 

Edit: its a slow Keyboard!!

[Making Movers pan back and forth]

Press the Wheel Group button again to display the next three movement effect parameters (Offset, Rotation, Speed)

 

what does the rotation do? does it rotate the fixture more? not sure as i have never had to use this!

 

i use the fx very often but the only thing i find with them is that when your running a saved fx and then go into another fx, it always jerks back to the start position. no matter how much LTP you put on?

[i like the thinking behind this desk!!]

MS-100 Master-Station Einkanal-Hauptstation, 19"

Mit Anschluß für Racklights, 12 V Zigarettenanzünder, auch als Handy-Lader geeignet, mit Fach für Zigaretten/Handy.

 

i think it says that it has connections to racklights, 12v cigarette lighters and mobile phone chargers??

[i like the thinking behind this desk!!]

 

well, i supose you could call this a feature!! lol how did you market this? or was it just an added extra?

[edit memory with fixtures]

What also is possible that you come accidentally along your reset value. If that for example 100 is, and your fade of 80 to 200 then zul you come automatic and resetten your heads. Beetje of strange heads on which that this way programmed would be, but well; it would be possible. If you have really taken that step with the hand you must indeed even such as Pipo say the step obtain.

 

Well, if that doesn't sound dodgy!! 8O

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

 

my dutch seems to have gone a little rusty

[My fixtures does not respond to my commands]

when you re-assign a fixture it loses all patch settings, can get annoying. 8O

[LED gooseneck light]

hi there, i am looking at a led gooseneck for my fat frog.

 

how is the light output wired? might need to swap the polarity?

its quite difficult actually

[Can't work my mojo]

hi there, is the shutter in brightness or is it set in beamshape?

If it is in beamshape you can do 1 of 2 things.

 

you can use another sub to shut the shutter

 

you can create a fixture file that has the shutter on brightness.

 

if you set a slow ltp of 5sec on beamshape and have the rest set to snap, this may make the fixture set before the shutter opens, but if you put the shutter onto brightness you will be able to trigger the position, colour and beamshape without any light coming out of the fixture.

 

i do not know the fixture you are talking about but i would asume that the above info is correct for it.

 

if you would like a fixture file made im sure if you posted the dmx protocal somone would make you one. i would but am going to be away from my computer for the next couple of days.

 

long winded post, sorry :?

[ID dimmer]

hi there, i used one of your ID dimmers 12 channels, for a gig last night, very nice. do you still make these and what sort of price do they go at.

 

thanks, any other info would be great. :mrgreen:

[Programming Multiple rooms]

you could program the 'cycle' onto the mac 250's. they have a section that you can set chases etc....?

 

just a thort. :roll:

[rotating gobo's]

go into super user and then desk setup. then assign fixtures

when you are in the assign fixtures menu, find martin on the list(may need the floppy disk) and then find mac 250+. there should then be 4 more mac 250 +, each with modes 1 - 4 after them. choose your desired mode.

 

so you will have to load a new fixture in, and then go down to patch functions and redo your dmx addresses.

[9.8 problems]

if you try pressing alt ctrl shift, in no specific order, i remember being near these keys??!!? i tried unplugging keyboard last time and no change.

and the scroll lock thing i have as well. :?

[9.8 problems]

i had the same prob as well, couldn't enter numbers, but didn't know how i had done it. rebooting resolved the prob tho.

[chases behaving badly]

right, got a show on friday. started programming for it today and put the first chase in. using 4 minimacs in mode 4. 2 steps. quite slow beetween steps. using a fat frog.

 

i have programmed it to memory, has 0 fade time 0 ltp time and 0 dwell time

the problem is that when i cue from the last memory,it moves to position 1 but then takes 11 secs to start to move to position 2. once it has started it is fine it is just the long pause before.

 

i put a few more chases in and its the same with every chase!?!?

 

Thanks

[Betapack 2]

yes we have.

 

thank you, do you have a link to the returns form, cant find it on your site?

 

cheers
