For learning TitanOne + Visualiser - can anyone suggest a personality that will act as a "conventional" light (dimmer level only) in Visualiser? I want to be able to practice using some moving heads with conventional lights at the same time.
Thx

Re: conventional light in visualiser?
The fixture you're looking for is called 'Generic' in visualiser. It's automatically inserted into your vis theatre as soon as you patch a dimmer in Titan, provided you have Auto Update enabled in visualiser.
Re: conventional light in visualiser?
thanks - got it! is there a way to turn auto-update on in the stand-alone Visualiser? (only see the auto-update option in the Visualiser workspace)

Well, AutoUpdate makes sense only in conjunction with Titan, thus this option is only available in the Workspace window. However, from what I found, there is a way to make use of it even if running Visualiser externally:
- in visualiser, save the theatre
- close visualiser
- start Titan (if not already running)
- open the visualiser workspace window
- load the theatre you've previously saved
- turn on Auto Update
- now, all fixtures you patch will appear in Visualiser
- and: from what I've found, even fixtures which had previously been patched without the visualiser window being open can be brought in: simply patch another fixture of the very type (manufacturer, model and mode). This will bring in all 'missing' fixtures in visualiser - you can then delete the additional one.
- finally, in the visualiser workspace window, save the theatre. Close the window. Now you can start visualiser externally again, load the theatre, and have fun...
