Chunky Fade

Post by cclocks8 »

Hi everyone,

I am trying to do a simple 2 color fade with uplights. For some reason, the fade seems really chunky to me, and just not very smooth in general. When i run the lights off of my controller, the fade is extremely smooth, so I know it's not the actual lights... Any ideas?

I have fade & scene both set to 1000 ms.

uDMX to usb... Here is the one I'm using right now. http://www.riorand.com/riorandrusb-to-d ... t-mac.html

I am planning to upgrade to a nicer enttec one soon, I'm just doing research on wireless transceivers still.

uhmm hard to say whats wrong as the dongle on the link also has a Micro processor to buffer the signal.
so thats not the problem. as i also read now "Internal frame buffering."

so i dont realy have a idea.
but still in the end i do recommend to use the Enttec PRO or DMX kinkg PRO

Ok, I will try the Enttec pro, thanks for the suggestion. Can you only order it from the enttec website?
