Hello y’all,
I’ve got a moving head fixture, Rogue 2x Spot running on the highest channel mode (21ch). Curious if anyone has experienced their dimmer effects looking choppy or steppy. Similar experience in pan-tilt effects, when running slowly. I usually program on a MA2 and have never had issues with smoothness when manipulating size or speed. Any help or suggests as to how to fix this?
Cheers,
Matvey
How are they programmed ?
Fixed base point or free effect it could be conflicting with something else running at the same time etc
I have the same issue with dimmer effects on all my fixtures, everything from cheap LED-bars to Mac 700 to dimmers. It’s like the effects lag and loses a frame. I’ve also experienced effects suddenly being off the beat, even though the BPM is exactly right (i have even checked this with a metronome). All of this is happening both in cuelists and in the programmer.
I’m using global effects built in to the system. You would think they would be simple and effective. I wouldn’t imagine wanting an effect that looks this choppy. Can we link any developers into this conversation? This is an effect I use a lot and I’ve purposely have had to hold back from using it.
Thanks,
Matvey
