Theatre Uses

Post by ronty322 »

Hello everyone! and well done to the developers for this software.
However there's only one thing that eludes me, How do I set SCENE's (NOT CHASERS) and program them to the cue list? and how do I use the cue list like I would when I program onto a Bull frog or a strand desk and then using a GO button such as the ones on every good lighting desk to play the scenes as well as control the fade up/down and LTP?

I have already gone through the sequencing tutorial which is Extremely Vague and didn't really do what I wanted to do.
please try to answer this as fully as possible as I only have until march to get this running on 46 Mac 550's :fs:

hi freestyler isnt made for Theatre uses....
Freestyler is made for Poeple that never used DMX software before.
Also for the profs you have the Submasters as all the Prof. lightdesk have.

But i would recemmend to look at the GO Monkey Cue stack. Its a Add-on for freestyler..

I know this but it means being able to program shows at home and uploading onto my ION console through artnet, which so far has worked well. I needed the go feature to make this aliitle more simple, this plugin looks great!! thank you for replying!

Also im abit new to the program structure of FreeStyle so can i ask how do i install/patch/copy this plugin into Freestyle?

Our ION's Artnet really doesnt seem to like going from offline to online, something that we need to have repaired but for now this is a good solution
