Other Question about effect on FLX (FLX'S) Effect possibility

[van den abbeele Eric]

 

 

So I want to have confirmation about effect :

On page 36 you're speaking about the possibility with "effect" button to go on the differents using effect.

 So just to be sure to understand. 

 

On a selecting fixture, it's possible to have different effects.

Exemple :

I can have on "Martin Mac 700" effect 1 "Cercle", on effect 2 "Chaser 1/2", on effect 3 "Rainbow - Pastel".

So when I push the first time on Effect button, This is the global things, and after second push, this is effect 1, next push effect 2, next push effect 3, and next push, return on global things...

 

Question 1 : Global effect is a mix of the 3 selected Effect ? Or is it the first effect ?

Question 2 : How many effect I can have simultaneously ?

Question 3 : In a same cue, can I have on a Fixture group 3 effect and a other Fixture group 4 others effect ?

 

 

Thank for you're help

On the first “page” if effect encoders, you’ll be changing all currently running selected effects at once. So if you dial speed to a value of 20, all effects will have a speed of 20.

Question 2 : How many effect I can have simultaneously ?

Each attribute can only have 1 effect running at once. Therefore the maximum is 4 effects: intensity, colour, movement and beam effect running at once.

Yes, you can have completely different effects running independently simultaneously with different fixtures.

thank Edward (You're never pick up from Zero 88... thank to be here)

 

1/ So the addition possibility are about effect which are complementary.

Like Intensity, position, color, or Beam...

But I can not using "Cercle effect" and "square effect" together if I understand all ?

 

2/ If I add 3 complementary effect, Can I recording all three in a new effect ?

 

3/ So If I have different effect on fixture, for editing I must selecting Fixture that I want to change, and after OK with changes, Updating the Cue ?

Not at the same time on the same fixture, no.

Yes, information for all three can be combined into a single effect palette.

If you wish to edit an effect that is running in a cue, you can indeed select the fixture, edit the effect using the encoder wheels, and then tap UPDATE, and tap your GO button to store.

OK thank Edward.

 

The way to add many effects on a Cue will interesting people which are needing some complex effect !

 

Question about http://support.zero88.com/1011404471 part, Is it still OK with 7.9.7 ?

Still having 45 effect when "automatically creates effect" is use ?

 

Question 2

If for a fixture (into a Cue) I have 4 effect, is it possible to just Erase one of this 4 effect ? Or I can only go to the "No effect" to reset all effect and started to zero ?

 

Update + GO

So I note also that After Update, it s'important to finish the Record with "GO" button. I think that I Haven't did that every time.

 

I will do a topic in French forum for explain this.

 

Thank for your help !

Yes, that article is still correct as per ZerOS 7.9.7.

To remove a single effect from a fixture, select the fixture, and tap EFFECT, until you see Exx on the encoders, where xx is the effect palette number you wish to remove. Then dial the size to 0. The effect is then removed.

When updating cues, the best practice is to go into the cue you wish to edit so that it is live onstage, then make your edits, tap UPDATE, and then tap the GO button to store.

Hope this helps,

Thank a lot Edward.

 

Can we tell something like this (Add on French manual)

Combine several effects together.

For All FLX
Several additional effects can be saved to create a complete effect.
Thus it is possible to add together an intensity effect, with one of position, colors and beam.
So you can select several effects, adjust their parameters, then with the "Record" button select an empty palette.

Erase a combined effect

For All FLX

To remove a single effect from a fixture, select the fixture, and tap EFFECT, until you see Exx on the encoders, where xx is the effect palette number you wish to remove. Then dial the size to 0. The effect is then removed.

 

Thank 

Eric

Yes definitely. Happy for you to add this to the French manual. This will also be included when the English ZerOS manual is updated.

Thanks very much for your time.

I think that when it's possible to add some little things that can help user, it 's important.

If I see what is the reality during performance, you don't have everywhere WIFI or Phone reception and to go on Zero88 Forum is not possible at this time !

So to have practice help in Manual look to be a safety way to perhaps save à show !

Take care Edward and I will come again for further question
