Creating one-step-sequence (for moving head)
Posted: 13 Mar 2011, 07:50
Hi!
I'm at the beginnings with Freestyler.
At the moment I "just" want to program a sequence that makes my moving head move (nice sentence
). So I've followed the steps I found in the wiki
- opened the sequence editor
- opened the pan/tilt windows
- set a Bezier Shape there
- set it "ON" (in the master output windows I can see the pan/tilt values move around correctly)
- and then I save the sequence
Then I closed the pan/tilt window after setting the shape "OFF" and inserted the sequence in my cuelist to test it. But when I start the sequence nothing happens.
Afterwards I made the same steps, but I added a second step to the sequence with the "+" symbol.
Now the MH is moving, but as the second step does not contain anything the MH stops as long as the second step is running.
Now my questions:
a) What's the error in my programming? It seems that the last step in the sequence is not be saved anytime
b) is this the right way I chose? I want to program a few different moves for my MH, and during moving I'd like to start other sequences that change color/gobos, also I'd like to change them manually.
Thank you very much for qour help!
