    Patching MadLight

    by MadMoe1313 » Fri Sep 01, 2023 3:52 pm

    Hi!

    Is it possible to change patch of several fixtures at once?

    I've 250 Sticks with 64 RGB Pixels (192 Chan.) and have already placed them in the mapping.
    Now I have to repatch them. Can repatch them in batches of e.g. 20?
    Patch hast to be like:
    Start END
    Fixture 1: 0/1 0/192
    Fixture 2: 0/193 0/384
    Fixture 3: 0/385 1/66
    Fixture 4: 1/67 1/258
    ...

    Can I automate patching in MadMapper somehow?
    "Skip last universe..." is checked.

    Thanks in Advance!

    You can make a group of fixtures for instance, all in the same universe. If you have the same patching on next universe, just duplicate the group (Ctrl+D or Cmd+D), then select all fixtures in new group, right click and choose "Shift Addresses", it allows to shift the addresses of a multiselection of fixtures

    is the same technique available for controls? right click and choose "Shift Addresses", it allows to shift the addresses of a multiselection of fixtures ??

    I'm currently creating 32 quads to all be controlled from an external DMX input Opacity Red Green Blue and currently I'm having to do each channel individually is there a shortcut or "shift address" ype thing I could do?

    Not for controls. We have a module for importing Controls for CSV file (from excel) which a few users with hundreds of DMX controls are using. Seems to work. Not well documented though.
    Here it is: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8fpeejtmgs331 ... r.zip?dl=0
    Unzip the folder and move it to ~/Documents/Modules. Then restart MadMapper
    There's an example CSV file in the module folder.
