Timed Fadermovement
Currently the syntax FADER AT does not support Timing arguments.
e.g.
EXECUTOR EXECUTOR 1 AT 100 TIME 5 ENTER does not work...
when the Executor holds a cue, one might get around the problem by using Cue-timing and Off-timing, however if the Executor is i.e. a Groupmaster, this is not an option.
Below is three different workaround for moving a fader with timing..
the 2xExecutor shortcut for the Fader-keyword only works for direct commandline. In link-columns etc, you will need to enter FADER with the keyboard e.g.
FADER 1 AT 100
Multi-line timed macro
Create a timed macro that sets the fader at different levels
e.g.
FADER 1 AT 2 |
(Delay 0.1s) |
FADER 1 AT 4 |
(Delay 0.1s) |
FADER 1 AT 6 |
(Delay 0.1s) |
etc |
|
FADER 1 AT 100 |
(Delay 0.1s) |
number of needed lines (the resolution) depends on how long the fade should be..
Timecode show
Create a timecodeshow with the faderup-movement
enable the options
- Switch off when reaching end
- Rewind when stopping
Switch off playbacks started by TC when stopped: NO
Create another timecodeshow with the faderdown-movement, with same options
Trigger the the fader by starting the different timecodeshows
DMX Remote
Patch a dummychannel, connect a DMX-out to DMX-in and create a DMX-remote for the fader
The fader will now follow the dummychannel, - just use channelvalues and timing whenever the fader should be used.
