11.6 FX using base colour
It is possible to create FX that use any chosen colour rather than just primary colours – a new example Colpulse.wve is included
as part of the standard FX library.
When the FX is created, the base level of the colour channel will be used to determine the colour that the FX will use. When the
FX is played back the base level is used in the FX itself rather than the FX adding to the base.
To create a new FX based on base colour, in the FX Edit Window, View General, set Use Col Base = Yes.
11.7 FX Window
FX can be recorded for re-use in multiple Cues when programming, or when busking live to quickly apply a complete FX over
multiple heads.
The FX Window enables the storage of FX and combinations of FX that are used regularly. The FX Window is opened by
pressing the FX button (formerly the ATTR button.)
Record FX into the FX Window in the normal way – set up the FX in the programmer and then press RECORD. All of the
different FX currently in the programmer are stored including all of the size, speed and offset information. In addition, any base
levels for the channels that are controlled by the FX are also stored.
To recall the FX simply select some heads, and then select the FX from the FX Window. FX can be named, moved and copied
just like any windows items. FX can be played back on any head that supports the programmed attributes – not just the heads the
FX was recorded with.
To edit FX you can include an FX into the programmer and then use Update.
Note that FX are actually stored as Cues – you can see them in the Cue Store – however there is no need to access them other
than through the FX window.
When you program new Cues using a FX selected from the FX window, a copy of the FX is made so that you can make
individual changes in the programmed Cue. Editing the FX in the FX window will not affect your programmed Cues – only new
Cues programmed using the FX.
11.8 Importing and Exporting the FX Library
The FX in the FX Window can be stored to a FX library file so that the FX can be reloaded and reused in any MagicQ show. Use
the SAVE FX LIB to make a FX library file – all the FX in the FX window are stored to the file. The FX are saved as generic FX
– i.e. they can be played back on any type of head as long as it has the same attributes. Reload a FX library using the LOAD FX
LIB.
