Show Buddy & DMXIS Forums

Excited for this! I emailed you.

Awesome! I will give this a try.

Thanks Dave!

Hello! Was wondering if its possible with D-Pro to control and receive feedback via OSC for individual dmx channels like what is documented for Showbuddy Active? Command /dmxis/ch/x [level] x = DMXIS channel number (1-512) [level] = float representing the channel level (0.0-1.0) TX & RX Descript...

Follow up to this with a solution in case anyone is interested! I found a post from Dave B about changing a fixture’s attributes in it’s dmx profile. I used the online fixture editor to alter my Martin Rush MH6’s profile to have Pan, Tilt, and Zoom become “dimmers” so that the show control window bu...

I'm hoping D-pro can emulate what I was used to in SBA, which was, to trigger specific cues with midi notes, and not have to be in order. I have 26 moving heads with different positions for cues. Ive been successful at assigning these cues to buttons in a radio group with nice fades but unfortunatel...

Thank you! I emailed you the zipped file. Yea PM would be awesome

Is there anybody that could weigh in on this issue? I just tested the same exact theory on my friend's setup at their venue running show buddy active and it does the same exact thing, jumping / flashing from one preset to the next, which tells me its not an isolated problem with my setup. The lack o...

Hi All! still trying to get this figured out, here is a quick video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dr1ruVr6Gd4 I noticed in the manual, it specifically says "When you cross-fade between two presets that use oscillators, the oscillators will smoothly morph from one state to the next. All cross...

Hello! Well i finally got around to taking a screen record clip of the oscillators not fading between presets but rather jumping. This is with a fresh demo version just downloaded. I checked the .dmx file of the sample fixture I have loaded and the "D" is present for the R,G,B channels. He...

Ok I’ll try to take some video tomorrow and post it. Thanks again for helping narrow this down!

Mac OS 10.13.6 High Sierra Faders do move in the software. The behavior upon fades seems to be that the oscillating faders peg out at their max value as they “start over” for their next preset. With your .dmx file settings, would I need to open up the fixture editor on fixtures.dmxis.com to understa...

Thanks again for your response!

To clarify, the jump between oscillators is reflected in the 2d visualizer also. It does not show a smooth fade and its happening to ALL my fixtures. Not just 1. So I don’t think it’s a .dmx file issue. Would any of my global settings be affecting this?

Thanks so much for replying! My chases are not on the macro channel of a fixture, but rather the RGB channels of a fixture with, for example, a sine wave oscillator applied to these RGB channels with an offset of 3 and 4 bars of speed where im able to get a blue and purple color morph. Then I attemp...

I thought I’d try again.

Despite setting fade times to more than 0, I cannot achieve smooth fades between presets with oscillating values, specifically on oscillators applied to rgb channels. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

Hello everybody! I use showbuddy active at our church for all our lighting needs. I love it! We trigger our lighting presets with Midi notes from Pro Presenter. The problem I’m running into is when we trigger a preset that has color changing chases applied, and then trigger the next song with differ...

Hey everyone

It doesn't seem that D-Pro will save your parked channels as part of the show. I have to re park them every time i open the show. Is that normal or am I missing something?

Does the park feature have to be tied to a cue or something?

thanks for reading

-Zack

figured it out folks!

I was using spacebar in my commands, just learned it doesn't register as parked in the dmx output window if you say PARK 1:1, but works if PARK1:1

please excuse my noobness.

Thanks!

Hello all! I'm a new user to D-Pro, i've been using DMXIS for a while now. Just curious, i'm probably doing something wrong but, when I use the command in D-Pro to park certain dimmer channels which act as my power source for some of my fixtures, it doesnt seem to stick through the rest of my cues. ...

Just to clarify, in case anyone else reads this: I followed this exact procedure again and didn't see any input populating on Capture Nexum, UNTIL, I cued a lighting scene which then caused the usbdmx pro to appear in Capture. You have to send a dmx cue out in order to see it appear in Capture. I kn...

Hi everyone! I'm wanting to use Showbuddy in conjunction with Pro Presenter 6 to control my Christmas light display this year. The reason i want Pro Presenter in the mix is because I can "schedule" a weekly repeating midi note to be fired to turn on / off our whole display simultaneously. ...

Dave! Thank you so much! It worked perfectly. It took a moment for Capture Nexum to see the input, but then found it! If I could high 5 you in person, I would! seriously, I spent 3 or 4 hours last night researching to find out what i was doing wrong, or if it was conflicting issue with the dmxis and...

Hello people! I'm running DMXIS and Capture Nexum Duet on the same machine, my Macbook Pro, and I'm trying to output DMXIS to my Enttec DMXUSB PRO as the input source for Capture. I cannot figure out how to get Capture to see the DMXUSB Pro as an input. any help or input would be greatly appreciated...
