Sorry - yes it would. Missed the point on the contact closure. My guess is your contact closure Macro solution is having a problem because you are firing your macro on user 0 and light selection is happening on User 1. something to play around with anyway...If you mess around with...

Build your Macros in EOS Offline and then open the file in Element. As long as the idea is supported by Element, it should work.I made this Macro in EOS offlineMacro_Loop_Begin Pan @+01 * Macro_Loop_EndSelect your channels and fire the macro - seems to work in Element Offline.As for...

OSC wiill be implemented in software version 2.3 It is fairly broad and input wise should cover you. I would wait for 2.3 to really try what you are doing.Macro Wise - You can Learn a "Parameter" @ +1 or @ +-1 (you've got to add the plus before making the number negative.) Does Element...

There is a certain level of proficiency that is assumed on a big show like that. Proficiency meaning - if the guy asks you to put a scoobie snack in front of your light you might have to ask clarification once. But not twice.The spot opts there always been solid - and it is noticed all up...

As mentioned they are all internally lit. You can cover a frame with any translucent material. We use a lot of translucent fabrics on frames, milk plexi or lexan work great as well.The real trick to getting it even is making sure the light box has a white back and top and do your best to...

As mentioned the main moving light rig was divided between 2 676's. The Eos covered the conventionals, strobes and a bunch of pixel map/LED stuff (Imagine Dragons, Queens of the Stone Age, Metallica)For Imagine Dragons we pretaped a small selection of Flares for screens and they built the...

The first pic is just a Cyc. It's a very smooth transition from Blue to Amber - so you are probably looking at an LED unit - like a color blaze. If your color needs are fairly limited then a 3 color cyc with a Blue, Magenta and Amber could get you very close. The cloudy streaks could be...

I use those things quite a bit. Mode 8 is the way to go. The macro effects in them aren't worth using.

Yes it is Hence "If you have the track" That is kinda your job Yes it does Correct - it is not Congrats You and me both.Thank you for that most insightful rebuff of my attempt to help.

There are 2 ways to calculate a color - 1 is Hue and Saturation. HS is an artificial construct based on a color wheel. Hue takes you around the circle and saturation goes from the center (0) to the edge (full).The other way is to directly control the specific color channels...

If you have the track and can calculate the BPM :Set all your steps to 1 secTake you BPM and do the following (BPM/60)*100 = that will give you a rate. So if you drop your effect into a sub or whatever - apply that rate and you'll be synced up.

The [Select Active] button is what you are looking for.I can't remember if the ION has a hard key or if the hard key is Labeled Select Last - if it is Shift+Select Last will paint the softkeys with the options you are looking for.- beat me to it :-)

If it scrolls through a lot of colors you are probably in Hue/Saturation mode - which can be annoying in this kind of situation. If you [Sub][Sub] # {Edit} : look at the color attributes of your fixtures. If the Hue/saturation values are highlighted while the RBG component is grayed out - give...

This could be a couple things - but if the timing of the IN/Dwell/Out is longer than the step time you can get into a situation where the lights seem to just turn on. With a 2 step chase it's a easy situation to get into. turn the step time to 1 and the in/dwell/out to 0/1/0 and that will...

First a disclaimer - I'm not a technical guy. I do a bit of EOS programming though....None of this has anything to do with cisco/linksys versus apple. So if we can let's put all that baggage aside.Currently in an EOS environment there can SOMETIMES be issues using certain routers. I've...
