Avolites Tiger Touch Pro

Postby afandrewflanagan » 26 Sep 2017, 13:14

Hi I have the original tiger touch pro and want to control cue lists with MTC.. I have worked out how to use this with the internal time code, but plan to use MTC for an upcoming show. My question is this - what fps do I have to set my time code coming out of my laptop to, or does the console have changeable FPS of TC - and if so how do I change it? Thanks

MTC inherently sends the fps rate, and the console retrieves and recognizes it. However, there is no means to proportionally convert it. E.g. if you have set a trigger point to 00:01:01:42 (with 44 fps), and then your source is 25fps, this trigger will either be not triggered at all (since frame 42 will never be reached), or will be triggered at 00:01:02:00 which is slightly off what you wanted. I'd recommend to always use the same fps rate if possible.
