Problem with strobe effect in a Generator scene

Post by MDJ »

Hey. I have a problem with the scene strobe. I have two moving heads for which the generator programmed scene such as a presentation of the demo wchich name is SM_STROBE. When I'm in the generator flashes and the movement is as it should be. But when I throw this scene as a LIVE button - nothing works properly: instead of flashes head shine after a few seconds, plus their movement is different than when I run the scene in the generator during editing. Do you have any idea what is wrong?

P.S. Sorry for my English

Add more points in generator.
Double check the saved file by loading it in "Steps".

FYI, Live uses generator file in v8 when thats released. So just hang in there.

I checked in steps and I set the time everywhere equally 0:00:50. Heads now flash alternately, but it is not a brief flash of strobe coming out in the generator. Head movement is disturbed by the short time of transition between one scene and another. Scenes is 10. I've included a link to a cutscene, which showed a problem.

Sorry for the delay.
After checking, Generator (in V7) is not able to manage with accuracy such frequency for strobe effect.
Sorry for that.

Please note that it should work ok in V8 (but V8 is in Alpha version for now).

In the meantime (waiting for a stable V8), please use the function "shutter" of your fixtures.
