Masterfader for 4 Devices with different addresses

Post by heelium »

Hello Everybody.

One little question.

I´ve got 4 Elation Design Wash with 16 DMX-Channels.

Every Wash has got it´s own DMX-Range. 1: 1-16, 2: 17-32 and so on.

Is it able to programme a Masterfader for the Dimmer Function, which is controlled by one fader on the BCF2000?

I thought about to patch all Dimmer-Channels of the Washes to one channel e.g. 100 an configure it directly (Midi to DMX) to one BCF fader. So it should be possible to control the Dimmer-Channel of all Washes with one BCF-Fader.

Or is there the possbility in setup, like the PAN-Tilt? These Channels could be controlled with one Fader.

I´ve got the theme problem with my 8 RGBA PARs. There should be also the possibilty to fade the intesity with one Fader on the BFC.

It´s unfortunately not possible to do this only with submasters because the fader should work with higher priority to change the intensity although a submaster is running.

Thank you very much for support.

Markus

Try submasters, you should be able to accomplish exactly what you are wanting by putting your cues into submasters.

Create a Group with them all then control the intensity for the group.

Good morning.

With submasters it should be possible, but so I have to create several subs. Until 4 Subs for each pair of PAR64 RGBW to set the colours and one sub to set the itensity level of all PARs?

Then I created a group with the 4 Washes, like buttza means. Now it is possible to choose all 4 Devices and set an Blackout (Blackout Group 1). But where can I set the intensity level. Blackout is too fast... I can´t find the

Thank you very much for supporting me and have a nice day.
