MagicQ Features Videos: Soft Palettes

[@dinoj001]

Awesome video! Very powerful. Going to build a show with this immediately.

This is great. No macros needed.

Thanks for the video! But i have a question, what if i wanna do this with Beams so gobo’s shutters etc dan gobo’s wont work with a soft pallet and zooms also not. How can i fix this?

Any attributes are supported with soft palettes. Could you send your show file over to [e-mail] and we'll investigate it.

Can you split the time and the spread effect into 2 difference choices? for example, 1,2,3,4,5 seconds into 1 region and **,*/,*-,*+ into other region, that you can combine your seconds choice with an effect, otherwise i lose 25 button for every second combined with every effect. Thanks!

Its not possible within the same region - but you don't have to put timing in region if you'd like it to apply to everything.

[@jamestucker3661]

Hello. Can I put a single timing cue like “fade 10 seconds” on a playback fader and make it some type of timing master if I pull the fader down I get a 0 seconds, half 5 seconds, etc. ?

[@ChamSysLtd]

Not currently! Though you could run timing via an Exec region with palettes.

Is it somehow possible to record a set of soft palette colors into a cue or automation? My goal: I have 6 types of fixtures and want to apply specific color schemes to all of them using one executor button instead of choosing soft colors individually for each fixture

[@martinkoenig1994]

Example: Movingheads should be magenta, scanners in white, PixelBars in magenta-blue and the laser in purple-white. This example color scheme needs to be based on soft palettes and applied using one single executor button

@@martinkoenig1994 Soft palettes can indeed reference cues and FX. So you could have Soft 1 - Spots, Soft 2 - Scanners, Soft 3 - Pix Bars. Then in the Exec select soft Palette, then select colour palette to change as desired.

LOVE soft palettes! is it possible to have those timing buttons work on fx? for example to make a tilt effect go "centre out" and just changing it the next time to "random"? I've only been able to make different cues for each individual effect and timing for it to work

[@tnikiforov]

you can sort of do this for direction,parts,segments etc by utilizing macros, its a hassle to set up but it works.

Not at this time - but possibly in future! :)
