Fixture Creator - Tutorial Center effect
This is a “How to” make a fixture for a center effect.
Center effects can look a bit complex but in most case it is just a matter of breaking it down pieces that can easily be handled.
The American DJ triple flex which will be used in this example is basically 3 scanners that are to controlled.
Looking into the DMX table they can be one unit using 4 channels or they can be controlled individually as 3 units using 3 channels. ( That’s a total of 9 channels, 3×3 channels )
Here both fixtures are made.
The 4 Channels fixture may seems a bit trivial where the 9 Channels fixture is the more interesting but still just as simple as normal scanner fixture. The 9 channel fixture is made as a combined fixture solution.
