Macros

SHAPESHIFTER fixtures provides factory programmed multi-step macros to create a variety of
looks without extensive user programming. Three Macro types give you varying levels of control
over the look.
Note: Inclusive Macros and Intensity Macros are designed to work with the
fixture in RGB mode on the Mix Color Function channel. XY Macros do
not contain color data.

Inclusive Macros

The Inclusive Macro parameter contains Intensity, RGB, and Module X/Y, Speed, and Crossfade
data that operate independently. The user can scale up or down from the preprogrammed speed
and crossfade time for the macro.
Inclusive Macro Speed and Inclusive Macro XFade parameters allow you to scale the
programmed speed and crossfade values of an Inclusive Macro.

0 Stops playback or crossfade
1-127 Decreases playback speed / crossfade time from the programmed rate
128 Playbacks or cross fades speed is as programmed
129-255 Increases playback speed / crossfade time from the programmed rate
Note: Depending on the programmed speed or crossfade values of an
individual Inclusive Macro. some Speed and XFade values may not have
an effect on the output.

LED X Y and LED Intensity Macros

For more control of the final look of the macro, you can combine other Macro types. The LED X Y
Macro parameter contains Module X/Y data only. The LED Intensity Macro parameter contains
RGB Intensity data only. Each of these Macro types uses dedicated channels to control macro
Speed and Crossfade in the following way.
