Hi, is it possible for me to add other DMX lights, such as a DMX par light, into the same universe as my garageCube LEDs? I assume I may need to splice your mini-DMX cable together with a standard DMX cable, if that is even possible? Or is the only way to incorporate standard DMX lights with my gara...
I regularly run MadMapper in sync with my sequencer which sends clock to MadMapper In, and every time that I boot up MadMapper, I have to remember to switch the Midi Input to MadMapper In. Even though I have disabled every other midi device in the MadMapper Midi preferences, it still defaults to one...
Hi I wanted to revisit the best codec recommendation for MadMapper? I have avoided HAP for years because the major inconvience of not being able to preview videos in Mac Finder. Has that problem been solved? I'm on a MacBook Pro M2, running Ventura 13.6.6. I'd like to be able to run multiple layers ...
Hi, I wrote a Material that renders fine on my previous MacBook Pro. However, after moving to a new MacBook Pro with an M2 Pro chip, the background of my material (where the alpha channel should be) is extremely glitchy. See the attachment. Is there something that I need to change in my code to make...
Great! Thanks for getting me unstuck. I added a decay to the flash, and an easing curve in either direction. Next up I'm going to work on a full featured Attack / Hold / Decay and I also plan to add bpm sync. It would be great if I could figure out how to not make it fire on its own the first time. ...
Hi, I'm putting together a project and I would like to use a Cue to trigger a single strobe flash. My thought was to use an ISF or a Material such as the Strobe material, and modify it to fire once rather than loop. I've written a little bit of shader code but this was not as easy as I had hoped. I ...
Yes. I just relaunched 5.1 beta 2 to double check, and the problem was gone! The copy/paste of Feedback Grid code from yesterday was working fine. So I repeated the process: Copy the code from Feedback Grid, create a new material, paste the code, and the problem is back (no feedback, instead I get a...
When I refer to Feedback Grid and try to do something like this, my mm_LastFrame returns a black and white checkerboard instead of the actual previous frame. So I tried copy/pasting the exact code from Feedback Grid into my own material and it returns a (red and black) checkerboard instead of the pr...
Hi, I was hoping to use a Difference or Exclusion blend mode so that the contents of one layer would invert the colors of the layer below, like the attached example. I don't see this in the blend mode options. Can it be achieved with layer FX? Are there any plans to add a Difference blend mode?
Hi, I have put together a show which uses a portable projection surface made of different three dimensional shapes. When I set up at venues, I never know the exact projector angle I will be able to have, and I will have to place the projector wherever I can make it work based on venue limitations. I...
Hi, I am putting together a show in MM that will have a large number of animated GIFs. From a size standpoint, converting GIFs to HAP result in a much larger file size, and from a convenience standpoint I can't preview HAP in Finder which is a pain. How does GIF compare to HAP performance-wise? I'd ...
