Variable chaser colours without shutter

Post by Julian »

Hi,

I´ve got 2 rows of LED Spots, and I created something like a chaser, so that the lights goes on and off alternating with bpm. There is just one channel where I can set the colour ( 0 is off).

My question now is, is there a possibillity, that there is just one Szene "Chaser" which will activate the BPM Function, and that i can control the colour with the normal colour presets?

Thanks for your help! :-)

Hi,

I think you can use the "sub" function of a switch and disabling the "autorelease" of the chase and color switch.
By inverting your chase levels and activate this function, you can select your color and chase it.

So actually how can I do that?

I made the chase effect with SimpleStep.

FirstStep: Outter Row is green, inner Row is off.
SecondStep: Outter Row is off, inner Row is green.

But if i Pres Now the Switch for another Color, my SimpleStep will stop, and both rows are the new colour!

Hi,

I've joined a show using that method.
Import it and test the "CHASE 1" switch on colours (greys in my test because i don't have the right fixture profile).
