Shoot I need some light profiles made but I can't pay for it. As I am doing this for free for a church. Do you know anyone that is willing to do it for free?

I have tried making my own and have done so but don't have the pop up windows. They would be really helpful. As all i have is the slideout control on the right side. Any suggestions?

Yes read the Freestyler wiki and you can create your own fixture it ist that hard.

See I have tried. I don't come asking questions till after I have exhausted resources. But for instance the LED par I am making is 7 channels

Slider #1 controls the green LED's

Slider #2 controls the red LED's

Slider #3 controls the blue LED's

Slider #4 0-16 white (red, blue and green LED's on)
17-31- red
32-47- purple
48-63- blue
64-79- aqua
80-95- green
96-120- light green
121-255- color change (set speed of color change with slider #5)

Slider #5 0-255 slow to fast color change (when slider #4 is set to 121-255)

Slider #6 0-127- strobe (from slow to fast)
128- 131- solid on
132-191- strobe fade in (fades up and turns off)
192-240- fade (lights up and fades out)
241-255- solid on

Slider #7 Dimmer (slider must be all the way up for the functions to work)


I can get everything to work except when it comes to channels 4, 5, and 6. When setting up the fixture in FS I have tried making CH 5 shutter but obviously that wouldn't work. Out of the options available in FS I don't know what to make CH 5.

I put CH 4 in the first color wheel and do that accordingly. But when it comes to color change on CH 4, 125-255 I select what option in FS?

And then for the strobe I select strobe channel but when I use the light and I click low nothing happens. Only Med and High do ANYTHING. and when I click High it is a constant on, no flashing or anything. These are the problems I have been having.

Thanks for your time in reading this.

where do I find the file pff?

[inked1]

the other thing I want to say is I can not for the life of my wrap my head around macros. What they are how they work and how to set them up. I have read so many forums about them and watched tutorials but I just get more confused!!! So if I could set a light up with a macro that would be awesome if in the long run it would save time on setting up for performances.

If you would like to know my whole lighting setup. I can send that as well.

Hej inked.

The pff file is used when you have created a fixture, in fixture creator, to generate a packed fixture file that contains all information and images and so on for the fixture.
It is found under "File" -> "Export"
http://www.freestylersupport.com/wiki/f ... _a_fixture

And Macros, that is just a way to with one icon / button to set some fixed values in the fixture.
