Mexican Wave with lights

With generics: Plot a multi-step chase, with each light on in an individual state. Set the drive to crossfade (^) and play with the speed until you get the required speed. You might also want to set the Shots to 1.

 

With movers: Plot a two step chase (or a crossfade). In step 1, the movers are in a diagonal line one way ... in the next, they're in a diagonal line the other way /. You can set them into a diagonal line by using the fan-middle function with the Tilt (or Pan, depending on the rigging of your fixtures). Make sure you select the fixtures in the correct order.

I think someone was getting their terminology confused :oops:

 

A chase memory has a number of modifiers which determine how the chase runs when it is triggered from the memory stack (Playback X) or a submaster.

 

These modifiers are listed and described on page 4-2 of the manual :D
