Filter Mode Filter mode allows you to apply colored gels to your current CCT setting. This mode allows you to match the color temperature of your other lights and then add a gel for a touch of color to the light. The Viola2 uses the setting from CCT mode to calculate the precise color temperature of the gel as it would appear on the actual light. Applying a filter to a preset white-balance color temperature is available on the Conductor app in CCT mode.
Setting the White-Balance Color Temperature If you need a white-balance color temperature other than the presets, the Viola2 can be adjusted to a specific color temperature for filter mode. A specific white-balance color temperature can also be set with the Conductor app. To adjust the color temperature setting of filter mode, follow these steps: 1. Press the mode select button repeatedly until CCT mode appears on the LCD display. 2. Use the adjustment dial to scroll to the desired color temperature. 3.
