how do I remove shapes from an individual fixture?

let's say i have my Mac's waving about in a trendy manner using a shape, and I want to use one of them to spotlight someone... How would I remove the shape from just that one fixture?

Is it possible with a 2008 running the expert software?

question about rewriting an r20 file

i need to change the base value on a fixture's shutter attribute from 35 to 20... If I was to edit the r20 file , would i need to repatch the fixture, thus losing all the programming info on it, or would it just read the new r20 file and treat the shutter base value as 20? The Mac 700 wash has a bas...

the idea is for everything to move the same direction... up, then down to the original position, then rest for a couple of beats :D

check the settings on the venue's desk and see how their dimmer curve is set. Then, check the dimmers to see if their curve is set to anything other than linear

Have you tried using a third console to see if it does the same as the sapphire?

pearl 2008 and avocopy

has anyone at Avo had a chance to sit down and figure out why files created on the Simulator, then converted via avocopy won't work on my particular Pearl?

Just wondering.

If you need more specifics from the console, let me know.

it's the same problem I get when trying to load a show from the offline editor onto a 2008, even when using avocopy. The only thing you can do is start completely over again. Sometimes, the 2008 writes a file it can't read. That has happened to me twice. (if the console belonged to me, it would have...

controlling a shape on mode 2 (Pearl)

I want to control the speed, but not the size of the shape. Am i missing a keystroke somewhere when i make the shape, hit memory, 2, then a swop button? The fader controls both speed and size... i only want it to control speed.
