Re: How do you use videos

OK so after trawling the forum i managed to find out how to do this. Now i know how, its so obvious, but the 'add video' button isn't where i would have expected it to be (down at the bottom right of the screen). So for anyone like me that couldn't see how to do it the guide is below. Would be handy...

How do you use videos

Sorry that this is a really broad question. I’ve been using Showbuddy for years and recently taken the plunge to get the video output. Problem is I have no idea how to use it. I can’t see anything on YouTube, or in the manual or this forum. I’m just planning to run some videos or even project still ...

Making Duplicates of Song Light Shows

I'm just about to venture into the world of adding videos to performances (this will no doubt come with many more questions!) but i wondered if there was a way to duplicate/make copies of the existing track i already have. The plan being to have one with video (the new copy) and one without (the ori...

Re: Chase with 4 Par Bars

its a little tricky, as you have to set the chase value of the alternate lights to 50% one at a time. So the steps would be 1. Select all the Red/Blue channels for all the lights you want to chase 2. Set the channel values to 127 (50%) 3. Set the oscillator for all the channels 4. Select each even-...

OK that works thanks, but now i can only get all 4 on/off at once. Any idea how to make for example lights 1 & 3 come on then 2 & 4?

Thanks

Re: Chase with 4 Par Bars

You need to set the colours up separately. First do the blues to chase from 0 to 100 then do the same chase with the reds from 0 to the desired level. Save it as a preset then start it running and they should chase your purple colour. I am happy to go into the numbers if needed. Hope that helps. Ne...

Chase with 4 Par Bars

Hi there, I'm using a KAM Power Party Bar (others are available) and whilst i don't have any issues setting up chases for the RGB colours (which are on individual faders) i'm not sure how to do this when i want for example a purple colour. In this case both the RB faders are in play, but i need to f...

Equinox Donim8r II

Hello Again, Just wondered if anyone has any experience of using this fixture in DMXIS. I'm very new to the whole DMX lighting thing, so struggling with a few things. I've downloaded the 16 Channel fixture setting from the online library, but i'm struggling to select individual colours for the lamps...

Re: Copy and Paste Pre-sets

Thanks for that. Never thought about the Masking Option. I had watched a tutorial on that last week, but even by the guys admission who made it, he suggested it may take a few watches to understand it. So i'll have another look now i've got some basic presets in the software. I did wonder though, an...

Copy and Paste Pre-sets

I've set us some basic Presets such as different colours for my front lights and then done the same for the rear lights. The idea being that sometimes i will only want the back li...

Kam Firefly Laser

Plan is to move on to showbuddy once i've got my head around this. I've managed to pick up a Kam Firefly VR laser cheap off ebay (£15), but have a ...
