Move to black

Guys, is there ANY way you could add something to the program on the next build??? Now there is no move to black or "move while black" feature. This has GOT to change if Das wants to move into serious moving light show production! The fact that every time a scene is "deselected" ...

Thanks

We tried the groups this weekend and it worked pretty well I must say. After we get our dimmer rack plugged into all the Soco, we just use the master DMX to identify each light, write it down, then created a group. No problem. The only issue I see with this method is that the chases might be a littl...

Blackout THEN move fixtures?

Does DVC2 have any options to black a moving fixture out before it moves to it's next position? Right now, I create a three scene operation. Black, move, then on. Is there a better way to do this, if you are trying to spot individuals in a choir, etc, and don't want the open beam to sweep everything...

Thanks Simon

You mean any individual channel that shows a value, or the actual DMX address? I'm guessing you mean a channel with a value cuz you can't have a DMX address of 0 lol.

Thanks,

Mike

Strange issue

Ok, I've been aware of this since day one with DL. Whenever you create a new scene. I've noticed that if you have other fixtures selected, they get "included" in the scene, even if there is no action, changes, etc. In other words, when you then run the live show, if you call a new scene th...

Conventionals

Ok, Perhaps this has been covered. But please give me the best tips for programming conventional pars. In other words, how do you program a 60k show, and separate all the colors, etc? I have always "jury rigged" it, but I'm sick of doing it this way. I've noticed the program will "ble...

Mac 3k Profile needed...Calling all Simons

HELP! Simon, hook me up brother.... We just sold a DVC Gold system to a large university that has 6 Mac III Profiles (monster lights) in the basketball arena. They also have Mac 400 LED wash's (which thankfully are in the list already). For the demo, I had to use the universal faders whilst looking ...

Color Mixing issue with FX generator.

I'm trying to create a super slow color rotation between 2 colors. Perhaps a 10 minute slow roll- between 2 colors only....purple and gold. In the FX generator, It seems the slowest color effect takes like 3 seconds. Too much strobing-type look. I'm looking for a color change that takes literally 10...

Ok, I made sure the "x" box is checked in the live window. When you say blue box in the editor tab, are you talking about where the "play" icon comes up, the arrow? Also, do you know how to "resize" a fixture box that has 32 channels so that you can see the right hand s...

Question regarding the Fade times

Ok, so I have one computer with Das 2 on it. For some reason, it does not seem to want to allow fade times of any sort. Everything seems to work fine with the program, but no MATTER what i simply cannot get the fade, hold, or the fade in/out function to respond. As soon as I select the next scene, t...

Fixture Icons

I'm creating a fixture in the library. Everything seems to work OK, but for some reason, when i patch the fixture into my show, a few of the channel labeling icons come up correctly, but mostly it's a bunch of question marks!

Any ideas why they are not translating into the patch???

Thanks,

Mike
