Strobing 3 Channel LEDs?

Post by spankthafunk »

Is there anyway to strobe 3 Channel (RGB) LEDs?

These particular LEDs don't have an extra channel for intensity or strobing functions. Can I create a fixture and add it manually or do I have to actually have that setting on the LED itself?

In other words, I'd like to strobe without having to create just a generic chase, because I eventually want to be able to control the speed of the strobe (and not by cycling thru different "chases" for speeds).

Does that make sense? Sorry, n00b here.

to have a nice looking strobe you indeed need a Sepearte Strobe channel.

The only way is to create a Sequence 2 steps , 1= Led on , 2= Led off.
and playback this on the cue so you can Adjust the speed with the speed slider.
Only this will Never be As fast as a Strobe channel.
