Lesson 8 Tut3

DMXControl 3 lessons

Overview

Scenes (cues) are the most important elements of your show. Here we will explain the powerful scene concept of DMXControl 3.

Lecture 8: Scenes

Each scene needs a "host container"- that's a scene list. Therefore you have to create at first one or more scene lists by clicking the button "Create scenelist" which you can find in the project explorer main menu. Of course, the created scene list will appear in the folder "Scene list".

You can open this new scene list with a double click on the object in the project explorer. Next step is to create a new scene. Therefore, we will change the color of the moving lights to "red" (please open the shutter too) and we will turn on the two middle front lights.

Return to the scene list panel and press the Store cue button. At first the programmer filter tool will appear where you can manually influence which devices and which attributes should be really taken over into the new scene. Typically you can confirm without modification.

The result is your first cue (scene) in your scene list. You should change the name of the cue thus you can remember laterly what is the reason and target of this cue (e.g. "First Scene", "Start cue", "ML to red", etc.)

In the same way you can create some more cues and store it in the scene list.
