Chauvet Intimidator Spot Duo - ISSUE!

Post by alhuddart »

When using the Chauvet provided profile for the Spot Duo (in 'Showxpress V6 + V7) the Generator doesn't treat the second Pan + Tilt channels as Pan + Tilt! It doesn't group them together and allow you to use the generator for shapes in the way that it is intended. I'm guessing this is a glitch in the software that assumes every fixture only has one set of Pan/Tilt channels...(including 'fine').

The work-around I'm having to use is to edit the fixture and remove the second set of P/T channels, make a 4 channel profile (P,uP,T,uT) and place that in front of the amended profile, group and then control P/T as I should be able to in Generator.

If someone could address this I'm sure others would find it helpful.

Thank you for this feedback.

Yes, our software is presently not able to manage perfectly "multi-heads" fixtures (same problem for many other lighting software).
This problem is considered in our future developments (too early to tell more).

And yes, you can workaround by declaring two "single-head" fixtures, instead of one "dual-heads" fixture.

Hate to dig this up from the dead but is there now a work around? I have 3 files from FB but I am not sure how to set up. Any info would be appreciated! :D
