Show Fixture Colour in Fader View


Erics

Recommended Posts

I'm joust bought a FLX 48 and now i programm some chasers with LED fixtures.

Is there any view wich shows me the LED colour of the output?
In the fader view you can see the intensity, perhaps it would be nice to have the colour integrated too.

I use: Zero 88 FLX S48 / ETC ColorSource 40 / GLP Creation 4096 / Chamsys MQ70 / Madrix

Hi Erics,

Thank you for your comments. I will make a note of your request.

Currently if you select a fixture and go to the Colour Picker tab, the value fader on the right hand side of the touchscreen will be the current colour of the fixture. If you have multiple fixtures selected in different colours, you will be able to see multiple cross-hairs on the picker, showing you the colour of each fixture.

Hope that helps.

Thanks Edward for your response. I know the colour fader @ the colour picker. That helps while programming colours. But in the moment you have no window wich shows your utput color for your fixtures.

I have know connected an acer T231H touch monitor to the FLX48. And while you are programming you see the values for each fixture parameter. When you use the playpacks and the "multi function Faders" view  you could only see the intensity for each fixture.

It would be cool if you could also see the colour per fixture or you have an "output" view with values like while you are programming. I think it's difficult to see if you have programmend the right values and if you have touched the right parameters of your fixtures.

The next enhancement would be if you could delete single cues from a cuelist with delete and press the Q # on the touch screen. Now you could only do this with the Z button. And than you have to recognized the right number. Since it is easy to delete a hole playback this way would be also very fast i think.

Naming Playback Faders with setup and "Advanced" Tab has take me some time. I had read the part in the manual a vie times since i recognized that i have to tab the Advanced button to see the name input. For me this would be a general parameter. I named instead the first cue of the playback and thought that would be displayed perhaps.
