Matrix on Titan Expert

Postby Braathe » 21 Feb 2009, 14:50

So I just got our console back 2 days ago with the upgrade and it looks great so far.

However playing around with the console there is a two tings i can not find, the first is the Matrix. Is this released yet or is it planed for a future version ?

Second is the color picker that should come up when ever View Wheels are selected on the VDU and controlling CMY / RGB. I have tried with several different fixtures (that all have CMY or RGB) but the color Picker doesnt pop up on any of them.

Hi,

Great to hear you're updated. Unfortunately Matrix is not ready yet.

I think the mention of colour picker in the manual may be a mistake. I certainly can't find it.

On the subject of the manual I believe there are a few other corrections:
The most obvious is user settings (VDU drop-down) which was reduced down to the functioning options. There is also reference to a quick palettes toggle here elsewhere in the document which is incorrect. This function is currently always enabled, although I see no reason why it would need to be disabled.

The manual also states that you must be in Run mode to access flash and swop functions, which is not true. These can be toggled in Program mode via user settings (LCD shift menu).

I recommend making sure 'return to playback state on clear' is disabled in VDU user settings. This function is currently faulty.

Thank you for the conformation.

I must say i very much liked the way the colour picker worked in the old Expert Software, a permanent window that would affect currently selected fixtues, would love to see that back.
From what i have seen there is gonna be a colour picker in the Matrix in program mode? If you have been geting your hands on it yet do you know if would this replace the function stated above ?

Thanks again for sharing your knowledge, its appreciated

Matrix hasn't reached me yet, but I'm sure that a similar concept is intended, one way or another. It's important to hear about features other users find useful.

Waiting for Matrix

The matrix is surly a feature which is to be need very soon. We have the tiger touch console and just bought 20 DTS FOS 100 Dynamic but we can only use them to a certain limited effect due to the lack of a matrix feature.

Pixel Mapping is targetted for Titan v5.

Matrix was something else that ultimately never happened. Effectively it probably became the workspaces we now have.
