Fine-tuning effects, colors with white, amber and UV
Every card in the effect studio has fine settings like direction, speed or width. You take colors from the color palette or mix them in the color wheel, including white LED, amber and UV.
Step by step
- Click a card, e.g. “Chase” under “Brightness”. The settings panel shows a mini preview at the top and all of the effect's settings below.
- Set values with chips or sliders, e.g. “back and forth (bounce)” as the direction. The preview on the left and the mini preview change right away.
- Tap “✓ Done”. To adjust again later, tap the selected card with “⚙ Adjust” again.
- Colors: under “Color”, the colors of the current palette are already selected. Tap swatches to add or leave them out. The number shows the order.
- Custom color: tap the rainbow button (“Custom color: color wheel with white, amber and UV”). The window “Custom color” opens.
- Click or drag in the color wheel to pick the color. Below it you set:
- “Color (RGB)”: the brightness of the color in percent,
- “White LED”, “Amber”, “UV”: 0 to 255 each.
- Tap “Use color”. The custom color appears as another swatch in the row.

- Opening Effect lanes and going back to the StudioIn Effect lanes you edit a show effect by effect on a timeline. You start in the Studio with a mood and then refine single spots in Effect lanes.Summary
- Look programmer: Static Looks like on a lighting consoleWhen you open a Static Look in Table, you get the look programmer: every fixture is a row, every channel a column – intensity, color, strobe, position, movement, gobo, prism, focus and everything else. Thru is hatched. On the right you set everything the selected fixtures can do – across all groups.Summary
- How Effect lanes are laid outEffect lanes have four areas: the preview at the top left, groups and tools on the right, and the timeline below. You save in the header at the top. For songs the lanes sit right in the Song Studio at the Everything level.Summary
- Editing lanes and clipsThe timeline shows one or more layers (lanes) per fixture group. Clips sit on them: colored bars that play an effect for a certain time.Summary
- Master lane and color palette changesThe master lane affects all fixture groups at once. Use it to set a base mood, e.g. a cool verse and a warm chorus, and add accents in the groups on top.Summary
