How the Gel Picker Affects Scroller and Color Wheel
When possible the Gel Picker will select the closest gel as defined in a scroller or color wheel.
Note:
Some devices contain manufacturer specified gel mixes, and will only allow
selection from the Gel Picker of the exact gels in their list.
The channel display will show the frame number and the corresponding label that is defined
for that frame.
Tinting Tools
The Tinting Tools option is found by right-clicking on the Color Picker tab ( Using the Color
Picker (on page 232) ).
Tint allows you to easily adjust color regardless of the color space that you're working in.
You can increase or decrease the saturation and brightness. You can make a color warmer or
cooler, and you can add or remove colors.
Color Path
Note:
Color path is only applicable for additive mixing systems.
Color Path is a option for controlling color fades between cues. By default, color fades happen
in the native space of the fixture. If you want a fade that resembles a fade in a different color
space, you can do that using color paths. There are eight preprogrammed color paths, and you
can also record your own . Up to 1000 color paths are supported.
