Feature Requests

Post by MatrixLights »

Hey,
I'd like to see such features in a future version of DL5.

1. Superscene Drive Mode
If you add a scene to the superscene that has driving modes (for example bpm driving) this won't be applied to the started scenes. They only use the times, not the driving mode. Maybe as an option in the superscene settings.

2. Color preview
Some fixtures (like the ADJ Nucleus Pro) have RGBW LEDs but you can't control them seperate. You can't dim the LEDs, you have 16 different options to combine them with only one fader. Since this fader is defined as a color wheel and has no dimmer the colors aren't shown in the selection window.
If you use the mixer with a color and then press "Full" there is a buggy view (screenshot).

3. Color mapping
Option to include color wheels for color mappings. As in 2. explained, when you only have one fader for the colors, you can't use color mappings for this fixtures. It would be really nice if you could include this to color mappings. This would make some things much easier.

You can actually do this in version 5. you have to assign the channel out and velocity out right, then it works.

this doesn't work for faders in general. You have to select a faderpart that has the "linear" option activated (as far as I know). This applies to pan/tilt, speed, strobe... faders under their part of the faders. But this does only work for this one part of the fader (for example color wheel/gobo rotation). You can't apply this to multiple parts (multiple colors/gobos).
But I don't know why they didn't activated this for a whole fader.

Yes I totally get and like the point to be able to only select specific parts of a fade
for example only blue but it would be nice if DL gives us the possibility to use whole faders too.
