If your not sure where or how to use the xml files let me know if your on a Windows or mac and i can tell you where to place the file and patch it in.
Sincerely,

Hello James
I am not sure how this piece works. I am on a MAC. Can you send detail information on where to put the file and patch. please keep in mind I am new to this. thank you for getting back to me.

thanks
Jose

ok the file path for a Mac is, ../Users/user/Elation/emulation/Personality profiles/user
Place in the user folder and then when you open the Emulation program go to Patch and select your venue LEDs and click replace and then in the manufacturer list scroll down to the bottom until you see {User}Venue. Click on it and then select your profile and then select number of fixtures then ok and you should be good to go. Let me know. And I hope these instructions help.
Sincerely,

Hi James. I to am having this same problem on my Mac. I followed the path but mine is not the same as what you posted.

Which was: ../Users/user/Elation/emulation/Personality profiles/user

My path is Users/user/Elation/
at this point I can go into Emulation folder but there is no Personality profiles folder. The folders in there are: CACHE, COLOURS, LANGUAGES, LOGS, & Midimaps folders.

I can instead go into the COMMON folder instead of the emulation & there is a PERSONALITIES folder. In that folder is a FACTORY folder & a USER folder. In that USER folder is where I see the Venue.xml file.

I did move it temporarily & add in your file but after going into the software & replacing the patches with the new fix, the lights still continue to strobe on & off.

Do I add on the additional file or replace the older one as it request before I can paste the new one in?

I can control the rate of speed under the BEAM button & using the STL fader, but I cannot get it stop strobing.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you & have a great day.

hmm ok. Ya moving the old one out and putting in mine should be fine. how long is your DMX cable run? Also are you using ACTUAL DMX cables? Also try putting a Terminator in on the last fixture? Perhaps you have a bad cable? Let me know.
Sincerely,

I'll try it all again, but I have the venue (brand new) Par 64 sitting on my desk & using the usb to DMX cable directly into the lamp. I have tried swapping cables, buying new cables & I will only be making a run of about 25 feet & then short jumps from lamp to lamp. I was told at Guitar Center that if I was under 100 feet, I wouldn't need one when I ask to purchase one. He had longer ones running there in the store & it was running on Emulation software & looked great. It was not an Mac though...
At this point I don't believe it to be a cabling problem as Im DMX for only 3 feet to the lamp & all colors worked & dim properly. I have a show this Friday so Im hoping together we can figure this one out..
Thank you for your time & efforts either way.
Im really happy with the software & would like to keep it, but ATM can't do much with it as all cues include strobing constantly...

Ok. Let me double and triple check the profile. Maybe it is locking on a value for a small strobe rate.
Sincerely,

Thank you...

Try this one. Be sure to delete the previous one.

Sincerely,

Ill try it now.

Well, it changed, but now its rolling through the colors every 3 seconds, blue, red, green. Better than the strobing, but I still have no control...

Darn it! lol. Do you have an copy of the DMX chart? I know I have been told they are the same as the ADJ Original Par 64 LED 6 channel mode. But if you have documentation it will help.
Sincerely,

WAIT:

I had to make a chang on the beam button - Set the DIM to full, & got control.
YOU ARE THE CHAMP...

Correct, I went to the BEAM button, set all three options to full & as I did the lamp went dark.
Went back to COLOR MIX & have full control..

I do thank you so very much, & am really impressed with your work & quick responses.
Thank you again champ.

Sweet! Thanks. I'm glad I could help out. Now I can upload that as a "manufacturer" profile. Thank you for your quick feedback.
Sincerely,
