Evenly Spread Offset
You can spread the Offset evenly over the selected spots with one keypress.
Example: Evenly spread the Offset over the Pan parameter for 10 spots.
Keypresses
Æ
1. Select spots 1 10 and
press [X]
2. Press [EFFECT]
3. Press the key <Spd> under
the Offset attribute.
4. Press [•]
Using All
<All> assigns an absolute Offset value to the selected parameters. This can be used, for
example, to program an Effect for channels where groups of channels are on or off at the
same time. Assume that you want to run groups of channels in a Step Effect. The groups
are divided like this:
Group 1 – channels 1, 11, 21
Group 2 – channels 2, 12, 22
Group 3 – channels 3, 13, 23
Group 4 - channels 4, 14, 24
In this case you would use <All> to assign Offset 0 to Group 1, Offset 25 to Group 2,
Offset 50, Offset 75 to Group 4.
Example: Assign the same Offset value to a group of channels.
Keypresses
1. Select channels and assign
intensity.
2. Press [EFFECT]
3. Assign a Primitive
4. Press Offset <All> and assign
a value using the keypad or
the wheel.
<All> and <Spd> can be used together. Changing Spread Offset values using <All>
preserves the spread. Example: The Spread Offset for channels 1 – 4 is: Channel 1 Offset 0,
channel 2 Offset 25, channel 3 Offset 50, channel 4 offset 75. Adding 5% using <All>
results in: channel 1 Offset 5, channel 2 Offset 30, channel 3 Offset 55, channel 4 Offset
80.
