Jd17 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I have a zero 88 fat frog and some Martin Mac 500 is there a way that I could map the pan and tilt to 2 faders to use live as well as using the whell groups.I do not want to recall a science or chase but use the. Like the wheel groups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.elsbury Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Hi 'R'. Not as well as the wheels. You could obviously patch the entire fixture as dimmer channels but that's not an ideal solution. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jd17 Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 How would I do this would that just do the brightness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmoorcroft Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 No, david.elsbury is suggesting that you might try patching the fixture as dimmers. e.g. if the fixture has 14 channels you would patch the fixture as you would dimmers e.g. address 001,002,003...0014 You would then be able to control all attributes on individual faders e.g. dimmer, shutter, iris, pan, tilt, colour, gobo. Not an ideal solution but it depends what you're trying to do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart91 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Could you record Pan@100% to a submaster, and untag every other attribute? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulDF Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I just use the palettes for controlling the positions, when I want them moving I just use figure 8 or circle. For an up down motion I use a circle with the Y axis set to zero.As a hint, if you hold the position button and press F1 the palate page stays on.

Zero88FatFrog Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Hello As David says there's no way of doing both so you can either patch the fixture to the faders or the fixture section. A way I have gained extra generic channel control is by creating a fixture that is just one channel- the dimmer. I have then made a show that is all 12 fixtures patched to this single parameter dimmer fixture, and then recorded each fixture dimmer at full onto page 20 of the submasters. This then gives you channels 49-60 on page 20 of the subs. This then means you can load this show file up if you need extra generic channels, and no intelligent fixtures Hope this is helpfulEdward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.elsbury Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Yeah, ; but he's not talking about running out of channel faders. If you read the original post he wants pan and tilt parameters only on the channel faders. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
