Effect 1 Mode and Effect 2 Mode

CHAPTER 9

Graphic Functions: Opacity and Effects

Two Effect Mode parameters are available for each individual 3-D object, each with three Modifier parameters. Both Effect parameters have an identical list of color and visual effect options. This lets you apply a dual-effect combination to the selected 3-D object.

Note: Not all modes combine effectively. For example, you cannot glow a wobbulating object very well.

The table below describes the interaction between an Effect Mode parameter and its three associated Modifier parameters. You can find a detailed description and example of each option in Chapter 13: Effect Mode Options Descriptions on page 119.

Note: Modifier channels for Effect Mode 1 are labeled as CMY in the Wholehog 3 system so you can also make use of the color picker, HSI, and other Wholehog 3 functions. Use the CMY parameter controls to adjust the three Effect Mode 1 Modifier parameters for both the Global and Graphic fixture types. The default for Effect Mode 1 is set to CMY1 as well. Effect Mode 2 Modifier channels are labeled Mod 1, Mod 2, and Mod 3.
