Colour Rocket scroller problems

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone.

 

I recently bought six Colour Rocket scrollers from the AC Lighting bargain list, four of which appeared to be brand new.

 

I always used to use Chroma Q scrollers, so had to get some help from AC as to how you were supposed to attach the gel strings! The method I had recommended was to use scroller tape looped round then attached to the gel string. It seemed so much easier with the metal clips that Chroma Q's have.

 

I don't know whether I have done something wrong, but when the scrollers are used during plotting sessions, they lose tension really easily and have to be regularly reset. We have an ETC Express desk which potentially could have been used on The Ark, so are therefore running the scrollers through submasters and percentages, rather than having them programmed as fixtures.

 

However, when running in cues, they are absolutely fine.

 

Has anyone had similar problems with them? I am currently trying to track down a user manual, but am sure I have loaded them correctly.

 

Any ideas?
