Recording Scroller Colour Palettes; Recording Beam Palettes - Jands Event 4 User Manual

JANDS – Event 4 Version 5 Users Manual
If a different fixture needs to be included in a palette at a later stage, it is possible to
re-record the palette. It will not affect the previously recorded values.
If a fixture is patched at a later stage and the same type of fixture has colour
information in a palette, this new fixture is added to the palette automatically.

Recording Scroller Colour Palettes

When recording scroller colour palettes, only one scroller needs to be selected prior to
the Record button being pressed. Unselected scrollers will also be recorded. In this
way only one scroller needs to be adjusted to record that colour for all scrollers.
Eg. to record a scroller colour palette:
That colour will be recorded into all scrollers.
If more than one scroller is selected, and the colour settings for those are different,
then the colour setting for the lowest number scroller is used as the common setting
for all other non-selected scrollers. The colour setting for the 2
scroller is regarded as a unique setting for that scroller alone.
If a scroller is patched at a later stage, this new scroller is added to the recorded
palettes automatically.

Recording Beam Palettes

When recording Beam palettes, only one fixture of each type needs to be selected and
adjusted to record that beam. Unselected fixtures of the same type are automatically
included when the palette is recorded. However if individual settings for each light are
required then some, or all, fixtures can be selected and a unique beam will be recorded
for each selected fixture.
Additionally only the beam parameters that have changed are recorded. The LCD
displays UnMa (UnMask) for the beam parameters that have been changed. A beam
parameter that has been adjusted and Unmasked can be excluded from a palette by
pressing the corresponding UnMa/Mask switch. As an example, this allows different
gobo settings in palettes 1-10, different strobe rates in palettes 11-15, and different iris
settings to be recorded in palettes 15-20. Because multiple beam palettes can be
played back at one time, settings for gobo, strobe, and iris can be combined.
