We try to keep Live, as easy as possible.
Moving parts of Editor into Live, not easy indeed !

the question is: What is simple

Make a bunch of scenes whit colors for the ledpars.
Or assign a color to a group of ledpars.

And there isn't a way to control your par's normal..
Right now i connect a midi device and assign channels to the faders.

So far, users like the concept of several "solo button" pages, with "bunch" of buttons.
It looks like they like, let's say 40 choices of color with direct access each.

good idea. It's the same concept like the big lighting consoles. u only put the fixtures addres in the machine and in automatic generes the "scenes" or in this case, a color wheel controlling "n" number of fixtures or some group, saving a lot of time and you can controll colors in real time if u want ANY color you get it and u dont have to programa a scene because u can choose the color in the fly. Nice concept.

For me simple could be: make a setup with your fixtures and trough a wizard, allow showxpress to generate scenes and store it automatically in LIVE ;) (like a generator, but instead of saving the scene in a folder, then put it automatically in LIVE), like the big lighting consoles ;)

Yeah... users like me... but sometimes it's very annoying to program 40 scenes one by one... and only for colors... the software needs some type of generator for save time

and for the faders request thats a good idea... for me the solution could be a option to link each fader of the EDITOR to a MIDI control........ or simply use the master faders if u want to control a group ;)

For now, the DMX monitor could help a little bit...

Bonsoir,

J'ai eu la même demande d'un client qui avait Sunlite que j'ai remplacé par ShowXpress.

Il avait le fader dimmer pour un éclairage a LED et le choix de couleur direct avec la souris de son PC.

Donc moi ce que j'ai fais dans Editor.

J'ai fais les pas des couleurs a choix de l'appareil, puis j'ai enregistré la scène et en créant le bouton, j'ai mis un STEP avec les pas de couleur, donc il peut changer les couleurs définis par Editor et apres pour le dimmer, j'ai mis un fader Master et c'est ok.

Mais je suis d'accord qu'il faudrait avoir la possibilité d'avoir ce que vous demandez sur votre premier message avec la photo,

de pouvoir avoir un fader master du projecteur et la colorimetrie à choix.
