Snowwalker Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 What is the Best/Easiest way to arrange channels to sequence vertical or horizontal color changes.
steve synek Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Welcome Snowwalker. I think more details are needed in order to provide any answers.Are you talking RGB? A specific type of display element? are you talking changes across an entire display? Steve
Snowwalker Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 I will have regulat LOR channels and RGB. I have several displays that change color across the entire display. I am interested in how they are sorted to do the sequencing of the scene.Thanks Jon
thevikester Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 I'm not 100% sure on what you are asking , but in sequencing, I do my color sweeps primarily horizontal, Left to right an back again. I do try to make the vertical happen as well, but never seems to work as well, I think its a visual perception thing.
steve synek Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 I'm not sure of the question either, but I use different tracks to create different channel lists. My main track typically runs top to bottom to match my display pieces / parts. I add tracks and change channel order. ( By my definition, display means all my lights- so I don't know what the OP means by several displays).
Snowwalker Posted February 20, 2013 Author Posted February 20, 2013 I'll try to be clearer. Is there a better way to arrange the channels in the channel config area. Are tracks similar to virtual channel groups? Can I copy and paste a red rgb channel into a track for left red or middle red,etc. That way I could sequence all left red channels together or all middle red channels. Also can a channel be in more than one group or track of a sequence? I am looking for the easiest way to sequence by color or location. Thanks for the replies,

Tracks were invented in previous versions of the LOR software before groups were. In many respects they can both be used for a lot of the same things. Having said that, however, I'd recommend you work with groups because they're so much easier to work with. Yes, channels can appear in many different tracks or groups, but make sure that you're working with COPIES of channels as opposed to DUPLICATES.
