The current mode of each STL is also shown at
the bottom of the main video screen. The ”Volume
Control” bargraph indicates STL mode as shown
for STL1 in the example below.
The audio level and frequency can now be
adjusted to make the chase step to the beat of the
music.
To adjust the
audio
level
press; [
function
].
The display shows “L: ##” where ## (0-100) is the
audio
level.
Rotate the
EDIT wheel
to adjust the level.
The volume control bargraph on the video also
shows the current level. With the music
connected, the Level Bargraph will pulse up and
down in time with the music.
Set the level so that the bargraph turns
Yellow
.
Green
is too low and
Red
is too high.
To adjust the
audio
frequency
press; [
function
].
The display shows “hz ##” where ## (10-600) is
the audio
frequency.
Rotate the
EDIT wheel
to select the required
frequency.
The Frequency indicator on the video also shows
the current setting (low to high frequency).
STL section of Video Screen Display
Select the audio frequency of the dominant beat in
the music. Try a low frequency to pick up a bass
guitar or set it higher to select a drum or cymbal.
Note: When you select a different frequency,
the audio level of that frequency might be
different from the previous frequency. You
might need to repeat the “level” and
“frequency” adjustments to get satisfactory
stepping of your chase.
When finished press;
[
edit
].
To step a chase with the STL you have created,
the chase must be connected to the STL as
described above.
19.4 SYNCOBEAT
MODE
SyncoBEAT
allows you to teach the
maXim
a
beat pattern that it will then repeat indefinitely.
When a chase is connected to an STL that is in
SyncoBEAT
mode, the chases own internal
speed generator is disconnected and the STL’s
SyncoBEAT has total control of stepping.
SyncoBEAT allows for a
syncopated
(non
regular) pattern to be learned. You tap out a beat
pattern and the maXim learns the pattern then
repeats it indefinitely. A syncopated pattern allows
you to have, for example some rapid steps
followed by maybe a long pause and then steps
getting faster or possibly slowing down.
Any quantity from 1 to 20 beats can be entered in
the beat pattern.
To create a SyncoBEAT;
HOLD
[
function
], tap [
f/a
] (stl 1) or (stl 2).
The display scrolls a message showing the
current mode of the STL.
Tapping [
yes
], toggles the STL between either
Sound To Light
mode or
SyncoBEAT
mode.
Turn SyncoBEAT
ON
.
The current mode of each STL is shown at the
bottom of the video screen. The letter “
B
”
indicates Synco
B
EAT mode.
To learn a beat pattern;
HOLD
[
add
] until the word “
Learn
” appears on the
display.
Whilst
holding
[
add
], enter your beat pattern by
tapping
[
ok
].
The beat pattern starts from the first tap of the
[
ok
] button and ends when the [
add
] button is
released.
Remember that when the maXim
repeats
your
beat pattern, the time between the last tap and the
first tap is determined by the time between your
last
tap and when your
release
the [
add
] button.
The “stepping beat indicator” on the video screen
now moves to the beat that you have created.
If the beat pattern is not correct, create a new
SyncoBEAT pattern by
holding
[
add
] and
repeating the procedure. The new pattern will
replace the old pattern as soon as the [
add
]
button is released.
When the beat pattern is correct press;
[
edit
] to exit.
To step a chase with the SyncoBEAT you have
created, the chase must be connected to the STL
as described above.
If a chase has been set to “Single Shot Mode”,
triggering the single shot will run the chase once
using the SyncoBEAT stepping.
See the “CHASES” section for more details on
chases.
