Multicell Fixture Copy Issue

Postby kimwida » 09 Apr 2018, 15:48

If I fixture-copy a multicell fixture(Like Clay Paky K20), the fixture which have 1 dmx address goes wrong.

To produce this error.
1) Patch 8 Clay Paky K20 from DMX address 1.
2) Record red and blue playbacks for test.
3) Copy a fixture to another handle. (fixture copy)
4) Repatch the fixture to available address.
5) Fire a playback. Then the first fixture which acquired 1 dmx address goes wrong.

It looks like losing its dmx address. I tested other multicell fixture(ColorStage LED 1912W Zoom) copying. They also went wrong.
But when I patch 8 Clay Paky K20 from DMX address 2, fixture copy works fine.
I don't know this is only my case or not.

As per my recent email I believe this may be specific to the integrated Capture simulation. Unfortunately there is a fault in the current version of Titan where copying multi-cell fixtures can corrupt fixtures in the Capture theatre. All being well this will be fixed in the next version of Titan.

Or is this happening with real-world fixtures?

Today I checked it in my club.
Like you said, it only did wrong with Capture.
Real fixtures work right.
Thanks for the answer!!
