after building a show adding extra fixtures

Post by John Koster »

Hello Guys,

Learning a lot about this great piece of software step by step.
I have probably a dumb question...
Let's say you have build a show with 16 LED pars and 8 moving lights.
You have programmed all kinds of scenes per fixture group.
Is there a possibility to add for instance a few of the same LED pars and / or same moving lights and copy certain settings of the scenes automatically?
I haven't found this yet in the tutorials and in the software and until now have had to upgrade all the scenes manually in orde to include the extra fixtures in the show.
Any way to copy certain things, to save a lot of time?

Your response is much appreciated.

Kind regards,

John

Hi!

I think this has been asked for before...
And it would be a very nice feature.

Sometimes (unfortunately often) you don´t know the number of frontlight fixtures which is installed in a venue. And that is an easy example. Would be great if you really could "duplicate" fixtures in patch-mode and have all values the same on an additional dmx-adress.

I cannot imagine, that this feature would be difficult to implement.

Just count the hours it takes for the customer to implement enough fixtures for every eventualities and set it in relation to the time it takes to implement in the software... just kidding...

Kind regards
Julius
