Modifier 2: Adjusts the vertical offset of the sphere. A DMX value of 128 (50%) = no
adjustment. Adjusting toward 0 moves the center of the adjustment down toward the
bottom of the image. Values above the midrange move the bend center up to the top of
the image at a DMX value of 255 (100%).
Modifier 3: Adjusts to the size of the sphere. A DMX value of 64 (25%) = no adjustment.
Adjusting toward 0 compresses the grid toward the vertical center. Values above the
midrange stretch the grid toward the edges of the image at a DMX value of 255 (100%).
When the Spherical Mapping effect is selected in a Global Effect parameter and a
Graphic Effect parameter’s DMX value = 254, the Graphic Effect Modifier parameters
make the following Spherical Mapping adjustments:
Modifier 1: Corrects the vertical bend. A value of 0 = no adjustment. Values below the
midpoint bend the horizontal lines toward the “equator” to a maximum at 255.
Modifier 2: Adjusts the center of the vertical bend. A DMX value of 128 (50%) = no
adjustment. Adjusting toward 0 moves the bend center down to the bottom of the image.
Values above the midrange move the bend center up to the top of the image at a DMX
value of 255 (100%).
Modifier 3: Adjusts the center of the horizontal bend. A DMX value of 64 (25%) = no
adjustment. Adjusting toward 0 bends the vertical grid lines toward the center of the
output. Values above the midrange bends the lines away from the vertical center to a
maximum at 255 (100%).
TIP: Modifier channels for Effect Mode 1 are labeled as CMY in the
Wholehog system so you can also make use of the color picker, HSI,
and other Wholehog functions. Use the CMY parameter controls to
adjust the three Effect Mode 1 Modifier parameters for both the Global
and Graphic fixture types.
The default for Effect Mode 1 is set to CMY1 as well. Modifier channels
for Effect Modes 2 and 3 are labeled Mod 1, Mod 2, and Mod 3.
