program problems

Post by Xclusive Audio »

I have been testing Freestyler now for several weeks. Had one live show that was a complete failure. I downloaded Version 3 to see if problems continued but still there. I think it might be a problem in setting up a moving head fixture. I will try and explain it,
When I bring up the "Create Sequence" window I can manipulate the fixture how ever I want. So I set the fixture to make a small square box, hit the save button, check the "add to cue" and "add to buttons" and name the sequence (small square box).
I then bring up the "cue list" by hitting the cue button on the top menu. The cue list appears with the Sequence that I just created. I hit the blue arrow on the left side of the window to start the sequence. One moving head will move in a small square box just as I had programmed it but the other moving head turns the light and does not move. I then hit the red box to stop the sequence.
I can then open the "programmable overide buttons" window and the sequence is there just as I had named it. If I click on the "small square box" the blue light turns on and both of the fixtures act correctly.
Is there something I am doing wrong ?
Most of my light shows are live and I cannot program to music prior to the show. I need the ability to program some small sequences like a small square box and be able to manipulate that fixture live.

There are some problems with the bezzier tools, it should have got a lot better in the latest version. But still may not be 100%.
Try programming steps manually without the use of the breziers for now.
