ideas for live operation

[Calder]

Hi there.

I have recently bought a fat frog and have found some frustrating problems when using it for live gigs.

 

firstly is the fact you have to program a chase with a gobo and colour in it. If you don't the chase starts in open white. A way to fix this might be to in the chase window when you are selecting either fade or snap a n/a is also an option this would allow you to program a movement only chase.

 

secondly is a way to speed up a chase that is already running, would it be possible to perhaps hold the flash button for that sub and using the chase speed in the effects section speed it up or slow it down.

 

Thats it for now thanks for your time.

1. You need to have the desk in Partial Programming Mode to program a chase that is colour, beamshape, or position only. This is an option found in the Super User menus.

 

2. Live adjustment of chase modifiers (inc speed) was introduced in software release 9.0, download the latest software by CLICKING HERE.

Why not program all your moving fixtures in open white then using the pallets colour and gobo as required
