  3. Other Question about effect on FLX (FLX'S) Effect possibility

    in FLX

    Posted

    thank Edward (You're never pick up from Zero 88... thank to be here)

     

    1/ So the addition possibility are about effect which are complementary.

    Like Intensity, position, color, or Beam...

    But I can not using "Cercle effect" and "square effect" together if I understand all ?

     

    2/ If I add 3 complementary effect, Can I recording all three in a new effect ?

     

    3/ So If I have different effect on fixture, for editing I must selecting Fixture that I want to change, and after OK with changes, Updating the Cue ? 

     

  4. Other Question about effect on FLX (FLX'S) Effect possibility

    in FLX

    Posted

     

     

    So I want to have confirmation about effect :

    On page 36 you're speaking about the possibility with "effect" button to go on the differents using effect.

     So just to be sure to understand. 

     

    On a selecting fixture, it's possible to have different effects.

    Exemple :

    I can have on "Martin Mac 700" effect 1 "Cercle", on effect 2 "Chaser 1/2", on effect 3 "Rainbow - Pastel".

    So when I push the first time on Effect button, This is the global things, and after second push, this is effect 1, next push effect 2, next push effect 3, and next push, return on global things...

     

    Question 1 : Global effect is a mix of the 3 selected Effect ? Or is it the first effect ?

    Question 2 : How many effect I can have simultaneously ?

    Question 3 : In a same cue, can I have on a Fixture group 3 effect and a other Fixture group 4 others effect ?

     

     

    Thank for you're help

  7. Question about Effect on FLX'S (recording possibility)

    in FLX

    Posted · Edited by van den abbeele Eric

    Thank Edward.

     

    Can you confirm that after editing effect (Speed, Size, and Offset) It's possible to recording editing on FLX S 24 and 48. 

    On page 37, waveform and recording section are on same page. And this page is writing like you explain with Cross for S24 and S 48. 

     

    And if it 's possible to recording effet after editing, perhaps it will good to confirm this with FLX Ok FLX S 48 Ok and  FLX S 24 OK

     

    Something like this...

  8. Question about Effect on FLX'S (recording possibility)

    in FLX

    Posted

    Hello 

     

    I m coming here  for a French user.

    He had a FLX S 48 (I don't know which ZerOS version he use...)

    And he's disappointed about effect generator, and explain that he can't edit effect...

     

    So I was looking into the 7.9.6 manual, and not sure to find a good answers.

    On page 37 (Waveform) at the end there is :

    "Manually created effects can be recorded as a new palette in the same way as other attributes – manually create the effect, press the "RECORD" button which will display the Effect Palettes on the display, and select an empty palette.

    Rotation cannot be performed on a per parameter basis and can only be applied to the Pan and Tilt parameters together. Therefore, the Rotation parameter can be adjusted via the control wheel, but is not displayed in the Effects Window."

     

    So I I understand that Waveform aren't available on FLX S 48, is it possible to acmes to Speed, Size, Offset, edit all this setup and Record it on palette...

     

    Thank for your help for this French user !

  11. Gateaway 4 and 8 - ZerOS on PC

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Thank for the video.

    I don't understand all (my poor English) but picture and video exemple giving  me a good comprehension. 

     

    So for instance I m using only DMX solution, DMX out 1 & 2 on FLX, but I would like to have a back-up solution in the event of a breakdown of the DMX sockets, but also extend my possibilities by having 4 universes.


    Currently I work indeed with the DMX outputs FLX console.

    FLX DMX Out 1 to control the devices that belong to the performance hall.
    FLX DMX Out  2 to a merger (to have the FLX & Jester 24/48 together,)
    and then many Split on stage to distribute my DMX signals my own equipment.

     

     

     

    So just a question about Ethernet Cable VS DMX Cable.

    For the moment in most cases, I use the DMX network of rooms or I go + a DMX cable that I pull from the console to the stage.
    The DMX cable which is around 50 to 100m is quite resistant and for the moment has had no problems.
    What about Ethernet cables? Do you think the resistance is just as good?

    This question of resistance is there because in some rooms, there is no protected and specific passage to pass cables from the Room with the public and go on stage. Thus a DMX cable is strong enough to overcome many complicated obstacles and support for people who could walk on it ...

    If you connect a ZerOS Unlock Dongle to a PC, this allows you to output DMX directly from your PC. You can do this by either using a USB to DMX dongle that supports the ENTTEC standard, or by outputting sACN/Art-Net directly from your Ethernet port.

    So this Unlock Dongle is saling where ?

     

    So I never use a PC Window. Just working with MacBookPro. A Mac user tell me that using MacBook with parallel desktop is a good solution for work with ZerOS on Mac. 

    I suppose that Mac OS is still not considered. There is many people that using MacOS on world show...

     

    Thank Edward for your help

  14. Gateaway 4 and 8 - ZerOS on PC

    Posted

    Hello,

    Two questions :
    1 / Gateaway 4 & 8
    Do you know when Gateaway 4 and 8 products will be available and where ?

     

    On the other hand having never used a device which passes by Ethernet cable, I wanted to know the reliability of the connections compared to a direct output DMX. ?

     

     

    2 / ZerOS on PC
    When using a PC with ZerOS, what are the possibilities of having DMX outputs and by what means?

    Is there a Dongle allowing this?

     

     

     

    thank you so much

    Thanks Adward for the reply.


    Question: ZerOS does not do this, but it will evolve. Because indeed there are more and more projectors which can work Led by Led, which implies to make matrix effects.
    And you can see inexpensive solutions doing that.
    So if I find that ZerOS is a really interesting software, there is also the evolution of the projectors and the needs of the people of the shows who evolve too.
    So it is certain that ZerOS is evolving and this is positive. But it would be positive not to let other consoles take too many advantages on the FLX ...

    Thanks in any case for your help.

    To understand this better (having never used this kind of machine), can you tell me a bit about the advantage of having a console that can manage or not Sub fixtures?
    Because if it does indeed change nothing on the side of DMX Channels, it takes an adventure to have Sub fixtures or not ...

    Thank you very much for taking the time to explain this to me.

     

    take care

    Hello,


    I have a question about Sunstrips style fixtures that use many DMX channels.


    I could understand by talking with other technicians working on other consoles which using capacity like "Sub fixtures" to Using little  DMX channels, when many Sunstrips are used ...
    When is it FLX and ZerOS, is it something that also exists?

    Thanks for your help
