Attribute Fade Time
The attribute fade time controls the time it takes to change fixture attributes if there is a change
on the same fixture between two steps of an effect. Attribute fade time can be “default” (black
text) or any value between 0.01 and 5 minutes, and is initially set to the value of the FX Up/Down
field of the Default Times of the User Setup Screen. Times below one minute can be specified
hundredths of a minute.
This field can be set using the rollball or mouse to select the field and the level wheel or [+] or [-]
keys to select the option. Alternatively, the field can be set using the command line as shown in
the following examples:
[FX] [1] [.] [2] [@ATT] [TIME] [*]
Sets FX 1 overall attribute fade in time for step 2 to 0s
[FX] [1] [.] [2] [@ATT] [TIME] [3] [*]
Sets FX 1 overall attribute fade in time for step 2 to 3s
Low and High Scaling
Effect steps are either high or low. The actual levels represented by high and low states are
controlled by the Level and Low/ High Scaling fields and by the channel levels set in the effect.
The Low and High Scaling properties for steps scale the channel levels set in each step. These
numbers can be “default” (black text) or a percentage (0-100), and modify all channel levels in the
specified step.
High Scaling sets the percentage of channel level to use for the “on” part of the effect step. Low
Scaling sets the percentage of channel level to use for the “off” part of the effect step.
To set the low level at 10% of the recorded channel levels, set it to 10. If you have a channel at
FL, the actual output level for the channel when it is “off” will be 10%. If you have a channel at
80%, the actual output level for the channel when it is off will be 8%.
The Low Scaling property is initially set to the value you set in the Low field of the Step Defaults
for the effect. The High scaling property is initially set to the value you set in the High field of the
Step Defaults for the effect.
