Libraries: Recall custom positions saved using RECORD | LIBRARY |
POSITION. Position Libraries are specific to the lights in use when recording the
position. Updating a Library will automatically update any Cues and Memories
that use it.
Joystick: Adjust a light’s position relative to its current position. The
further from center you touch, the quicker the light will move.
Bullseye: Adjust a light’s position relative to its absolute position
(typically the absolute position is pointing straight down or straight ahead).
Effects: Shows any currently active effects on a secondary tool bar.
Touching New Effect displays a list of available Position effects.
Control Shape
Different lights may have different shape abilities, such as gobos, edge,
motorized shutters or zoom. Only the abilities specific to the selected light are
added to the tool bar.
Wheels: Access options for gobos, shutter, lens focus, rotation and
other effects. These options normally appear on a secondary tool bar, called the
Wheel Bank. Wheel buttons
provide quick access to named gobos or
standard zoom values. Holding down Shift
and one of the Wheel buttons
will force default values (i.e., clear the gobo) and with some attributes
successive presses will take the attribute to its extents.
Advanced: Allows you to lock or ‘park’ the shape attributes of selected
lights. Also allows you to release recent changes, or to set a light its default shape
(typically open). Shape attribute values that are locked are not recorded into
Memories or Cues. Further advanced options, including
Libraries: Recall custom shapes saved using RECORD>Library>Shape.
