Request - Speed Properties [done]

[djb_554]

Hello, I've searched the forum and only saw a slightly similar request to mine (4 years ago).

I'd like to request in the 'Speed Properties' could you please add 1/2 and 1/4 beat options to the BPM/Beat slider?

1/2 & 1/4 beats would really help keep shutters in time for faster chases (without constantly tapping the BPM in).

16 & 32 beat is rather lazy as I currently just add more steps to colour changes, but they would be a great addition also if you're already looking into updating it. My Application is for Nightclub installs (without LJs) so keeping it simple really helps.

Many Thanks in advanced

Just to add... I could really use 1/16, 1/32, and 1/64 if possible.

Very useful when creating strobes/chasing effects, sync'd up with ableton using MIDI.

If you consider a BPM of 120
- the time between 2 taps is 0,5 sec
- with 1/64, the time between 2 taps is 7,8 ms (milliseconds)

And the fastest (theorical) dmx speed is around 40Hz, which means 25 ms between 2 taps.

So we are afraid we will have to wait for the next generation of protocole for communication in lighting equipment

Yes, but I think it works backwards from that? 1/64 would mean the light step would only change after 64 beat clicks?

I want to send 1/16 notes to the beat instead of whole notes. So when I create a 1/1 speed file, I get an 1/16 note speed chase.

I hope that makes sense?

Ok, understood.
