Moving Light Programming Chapter Four 85

LP-X24 and LP-X48 Users Manual

Because of the limitations in the pan and tilt mechanisms, the area that a moving mirror

can light is restricted.

Instruments such as the Mac 500 and Studio Color, on the other hand, are moving head

or true moving lights. These instruments are less restricted in their range of movement

but use all of the features of the LP-X Moving Light Controller software as a moving

mirror instrument would.

No Change

On the LP-X, there is an important feature known as No Change. This is referred to as

Transparency in some moving light controllers.

Moving light programming requires that each light in a look be assigned values for the

four properties described above—beam, color, focus and intensity.

There may be instances where you want the light to retain the value of whatever

precedes it. This is accomplished by setting the light to No Change.

For example, you know that the playwright will walk on stage for a bow in a specific

location but you do not know when it will happen. You want to light the playwright using

the same colors that are currently in use on stage. You create a look that includes a

specific value for the beam, focus and intensity. You set the color value to No Change.

When the playwright walks on stage, you play back the look. The light moves into the

prearranged position with a specific beam and intensitybut the color is whatever was

last specified for the light.

No Change applies to color, beam and focus. It does not apply to intensity.

The Moving Light Library

The LP-X includes a library of the moving light fixtures that are in common use. Because

of this library, the LP-X "knows" all of the basic information about a lightand you don't

have to program it in. The basic information consists of the following:

1. A list of the attributes for the fixture and the property with which each attribute is

grouped. For example, the Intellabeam 8 Channel has eight attributes.

Attribute Property Affected

Color Wheel 1 Color

Shutter Beam

Gobo Wheel 1 Beam

Iris Beam
