Programming Hints
This section gives you a brief overview of some of the effects
you can program using the Studio Color LCD controller.
Color to Control
The Studio Color fixture offers you a number of pre-
programmed color effects to choose from. Except where
noted, these options are covered in more detail in the section
titled “Color Key” on page 3-15.
• Synchronized, smooth crossfading between colors:
Use the Red-Green-Blue color mixing system to give you
smooth transitions between colors (but never white) at a
rate you set. If you have multiple fixtures selected, the
color changes are synchronized between fixtures.
• Unsynchronized, “random” color changes: The Red-
Green-Blue color mixing system is used to quickly snap
to colors (but never white) at a rate you set. If you have
multiple fixtures selected, the color changes are
unsynchronized (different fixtures change to different
colors).
• Normal or double color mixing: Use the Red-Green-
Blue color mixing system either to continuously vary
colors from 0 to 100% intensity (normal color mixing) or
to rapidly change colors (double color mixing). See
“Mode Key” on page 3-17.
• Continuously-variable color combinations: Select any
one of the six positions on the fixed color wheel, or half-
color combinations, or variations in between.
• Color spins: Spin the fixed color wheel in either a
forward or reverse direction at a rate you set.
