Gobo buttons

markofthewildMember

Is it possible to create switches/buttons? that will override the existing gobo with whatever one you choose?

For example. Many scenes I have have gobos in them. I want to change the gobo anytime by using a bank of buttons that are compressed with the name gobos, but just on the master page. I really don't want other people having access to fixtures.

Thanks!

best way to do gobo's is switches using the channel off property.
See video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wzl1GWBe4A

Let me know if that helps or not. Thanks.

But would i have to do this to EVERY scene i want to change the gobos on? I also notice that you have your scenes and switches on the fixture page can i put the switches on the master page? I need to save real estate on the touch screen we are using and really need everything on the master page.

Thanks!

no you use the switch after you use your scene. make sense? like in the video. Yes you ca create switches on the master page aswell. you just have to turn off the rest of the channels you are not using. which will be all the channels in the master page except the gobo channel(s).
Understand?

WORKED GREAT! I even put a few other switches in besides gobos...Now to really explore the space...is there a switch for more cowbell?

haha no that would be more for the sound guy rather than the lighting guy.
