Shape Base
is
~ (Free)
: each new group or cue activated can change the shape base
value, and the shape will follow its course with the new base values. In general, if you are storing
colors, positions, shapes, etc. in several Submasters, and then you combine them, use this option.
Shape Base
is -
(Fixed)
: each new group or cue activated that it changes the shape base
value, it also stops the shape in scene. It stops the shape of any shape parameter over which we take
control. In general, if you are storing complete scenes, with dimmers and parameters in the same
Submaster, use this option.
We made one example to understand the difference.
Store in S1 a group with several channels to 10% with shape of flash and some fixtures at HOME
with shape of circle. Store in S2 those same channels to 50% without shape, and those same
fixtures in a new position, also without shape. And, we observe the differences, activating and
deactivating the Submasters in different sequences:
