CHAPTER 13 Effect Mode Options Descriptions

ShakeNBake

Object Effect

Global Effect

Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 61

This option randomly vibrates the image. You can control the horizontal and vertical frequency.

Modifier 1: Adjusts random horizontal “shake” from the shortest refresh rate at a value = 0 to to a maximum at a DMX value of 255 (100%).

Modifier 2: Adjusts random vertical “shake” from the shortest refresh rate at a value = 0 to a maximum at a DMX value of 255 (100%).

Modifier 3: Adjusts how much the image is allowed to move from a minimum at a DMX value of 0 to a maximum at a DMX value of 255 (100%).

Tip: To get the maximum effect, set a high value for Modifier 3 and low values for Modifiers 1 and 2.

NOTE: This option is also available as a Visual Mode adjusted with 2 Modifier parameters, (see ShakeNBake on page 79).

Sinewave, Circular

Object Effect

Global Effect

Sinewave, Circular w/X-axis Wobbulation

Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 64

Sinewave, Circular w/Y-axis Wobbulation

Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 65

Sinewave, Circular w/Z-axis Wobbulation

Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 66

These options create a circular sinewave pattern and then vary the boundaries of the underlying object along the designated axis without affecting the media file that is applied as a texture.

Modifier 1: Adjusts the size (amplitude) of the wobble from 0 = no adjustment to 255 (100%) = maximum size.

Modifier 2: Adjusts the rate (frequency) of the wobble from 0 = no adjustment to 255 (100%) = maximum rate

Modifier 3: Adjusts the offset (phase) of the wobble from 0 = no adjustment to 255 (100%) = maximum offset
