Twitching

Post by szieve »

I'm having a problem with heads/beams twitching. Desn't do it with say a mack2k loaded, but if I load an Elation spot 250 it twitches. The wash 250 fixtures behave normally.

I've had that happen every now and then, and was unable to figure it out. It happened for me when I had them moving slowly...

Do you mean just in the Visualiser or do you mean the real fixtures?

I have noticed certain things that happen in the Visualiser do not happen to the actual fixtures when connected.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I mainly use the visualiser to get a rough representation of what I want to happen. I always design with just white light and an open gobo, then when ready I change to the correct colours and gobos to get the effect I want. Sometimes what shows is the visualiser does not match what happens on the real light. For example a GLP Junior 1 fixture the fixture files had all the wrong colours for what I had in mine and also not all the gobos where correct. I had two choices either change the colours and gobos or live with it as it is. I changed them.

I think if you need to create your own colours and gobos they are in the *.ico (Icon) format.
