Sparkle and ramp down at the same time
« on: May 31, 2013, 01:37:57 am »
Hi guys,

The song I am sequencing fades out at the end, and I was wondering if there was a way that I could have lights using the sparkle and ramp off functions at the same time.  How would I program such a thing?  I can also use Nutcracker if there's a way to do it in that software.  Thanks!

No fade in, fade out yet in Nutcracker. It is next up on the to do list.

maybe in the next few weeks

you're looking to fade away a set of lights, then sort of have like a random strobe effect?

Yes Chris, that's pretty much the idea except I want a little dwell time on the fades (hence wanting to use the sparkle effect).

In Vixen, I build a fade out effect by creating a ramp down, then copying it and pasting it over the sequence using either the "Arithmetic Scale" or the "Boolean AND" options (depending on version of vixen).
