Visualizer Multi Colored LED's

[Sound-guy Steve]

I'm slowly making progress, but don't understand the visualizer. I have a light with 8 multi-colored led's (RGBW). It's a 38CH setup allowing me control over each of the 8 led's. The visualizer also displays a box for the motor, motor speed, etc, and there are 38 boxes shown. But the light only has 8 led's (bar light type). How do I get the visualizer to only show the 8 led's, and display the proper color for each based on how the faders are set?

Is the answer to stack them on top of each other?

Make sure all your colour channels are named "Red", "Green" "Blue", "White" etc in the fixture definition, and are defined as "D" (i.e. dimmers) in the fixture file.

Code: Select all

Red
D,0,255,
Green
D,0,255,
Blue
D,0,255,

Or, if you're using the online editor, make sure they look something like this:

Then, the visualiser will display each block of RGBW channels as a single RGBW icons.

Got it! I had created a new fixture file but instead of loading the .dmx I placed the zipped folder in the dmx folder. Have it now showing just the 8 heads on the visualizer, and the faders are labeled and work as expected!

Now I need to learn how to make them Pan/Tilt, or in this case it's only "tilt".
