4. Choose the shape tab from the tab area.
5. Select a pattern.
6. Adjust the effect settings for the desired result.
Adjustments
Depth- The amount that the effect deviates from the static position set on the light. When set to full
the light follows the shape entirely, which will be very large. When set to 50% the resulting Shape
will be half way between the light's static rest-state position (the position it was before the effect
was chosen), and so on.
Speed- The speed or rate that the effect runs at.
Fan- The amount the effect is spread-out over the selected lights. With no fan all the lights change
together at the same time. With increasing values of fan the lights respond to different parts of the
effect, offset from each other.
Rotation- The angle of the effect. In the zero setting, 0, the effect is played back normally. As rota-
tion is increased the shape will rotate. The effect of rotation will only be apparent on shapes with dis-
tinct edges or asymmetry. For instance, the circle effect looks the same no matter what is the
rotation setting whereas the Square effect appears as a diamond if set to 45 degrees rotation.
Using Effects
Note:
Effects containing fully saturated colors, such as Rainbow, cannot be made
'more' saturated with the Chroma control.
The shape effect system only works with lights capable of pan / tilt movement.
Add Effect.
Note:
The order in which the lights are selected will affect how they are spread-out by
the fan setting.
