This FX mode can be controlled using ‘Absolute’ or ‘Relative’ mode. ‘Absolute’ mode will control the feature(s) according to the absolute value produced by the efect. For example as the moving dot travels from the lowest trough to the highest peak, the relative channels will modulate from their lowest value, to their highest value. ‘Relative’ mode will modulate the channel relative to a value already set by a separate scene. For example- if you have a static scene which sets a Dimmer channel to 127, then a ‘Relative’ Curve FX overlaying this; you will see the value increase or decrease by a maximum value of 127, depending on the direction of the moving dot (i.e. the lowest trough will subtract 127 from the relative value, whilst the highest peak will add 127 to the relative value).

To add a Feature to the efect, please follow the steps outlined in the ‘Adding features to an efect’ section below.

8. Mappings : In this scene type, you can control features by using the video based efect shown in the 2d view window. When a new Mappings scene is created, the efect will appear within the 2d view window on a resizable rectangle. You can click and drag within the shape to reposition it, or drag the corner points to resize. Any fxtures/pixels that are within the range of the efect, will react to the video accordingly. For example: If you have a Mappings scene set to control a Dimmer channel, whenever the efect shows White- the dimmer will be set to Maximum for any fxture overlaying the efect. Then, whenever the efect shows Black- the dimmer will be set to 0 for any fxture overlaying the efect. There are a number of diferent efect types you can select from in the dropdown list, all of which are customisable using the efect parameters. The Media efect lets you choose an image or video to play on the mapped area. You can also use the text efect to display or scroll custom text across the mapped area. As with the Value FX scene type - Instead of selecting a colour palette, you can select ‘values’ where Black = 0 and White = 100. To add a Feature to the efect, please follow the steps outlined in the ‘Adding features to an efect’ section below. 9. Colour Mappings : This scene type works identically to the Mappings type, however instead of controlling Features - it controls the colour of your fxtures. You can reposition or resize the video efect shown in the 2d View to include specifc fxtures in the efect. Any fxtures/pixels that are within the range of the efect, will react to the video accordingly. There are a number of diferent efect types you can select from in the dropdown list, all of which are customisable using the efect parameters. The Media efect lets you choose an image or video to play on the mapped area. You can also use the text efect to display or scroll custom text across the mapped area.
