CHAPTER 13 Effect Mode Options Descriptions

Faux Tile

Object Effect

Global Effect

Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 56

This options creates divides the image into a grid of tiles with simulated lighting at the edges. The color of the center pixel in each cell defines the solid color for that tile. You can control the number and spacing of tile, choose between a black and white grid and adjust color peaking.

Modifier 1: Controls the tile size. The default DMX value of 0 displays a 100 x 100 grid of tiles. Increasing the DMX value decreases the grid divisions to a minimum of 10 x 10 at a value of 255 (100%).

NOTE: A small number of larger “tiles” will also result in reduced color variation.

This option is also available as a Visual Mode adjusted with 2 Modifier parameters, (see Faux Tile on page 67).

Modifier 2: Adjusts the grid spacing and color around each tile. A DMX value of 0 = the mini- mum black line between tiles. The spacing increases to a maximum at a DMX value of 127 (49%). At a value of 128 (50%), the space between tiles reverts to the minimum spacing and turns white. Increasing the value further increases the white spacing to a maximum at a DMX value of 255 (100%).

Modifier 3: Adjusts the color peaking to simulate lighting at the tile edges. A DMX value of 0 = no adjustment and flat color across the tile. As you increase the DMX value, the peaking increases to a maximum at 255 (100%).
