DL.3 Digital Light User Manual 173
Modifier 3: Adjusts to the size of the sphere. A DMX value of 64 (25%) = no adjustment.
Adjusting toward 0 compresses the grid toward the vertical center. Values above the
midrange stretch the grid toward the edges of the image at a DMX value of 255 (100%).
When the Spherical Mapping option is selected in a Global Effect parameter and a
Graphic Effect parameter’s DMX va l u e = 2 5 4 , t h e Graphic Effect Modifier parameters make
the following Spherical Mapping adjustments:
Modifier 1: Corrects the vertical bend. A value of 0 = no adjustment. Values below the
midpoint bend the horizontal lines toward the “equator” to a maximum at 255.
Modifier 2: Adjusts the center of the vertical bend. A DMX value of 128 (50%) = no
adjustment. Adjusting toward 0 moves the bend center down to the bottom of the image.
Values above the midrange move the bend center up to the top of the image at a DMX
value of 255 (100%).
Modifier 3: Adjusts the center of the horizontal bend. A DMX value of 64 (25%) = no
adjustment. Adjusting toward 0 bends the vertical grid lines toward the center of the
output. Values above the midrange bends the lines away from the vertical center to a
maximum at 255 (100%).
TIP: 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.
