Stage Effects

Effect cues can be created in Stage or Blind (see Blind Effects, page 149). The advantage

of working in Stage is that you can see the look of each effect step as it is created. An effect

is made up of channels at levels in steps. Steps are played back in the effect at a given rate

and in a given direction. Typically, effects will loop their steps so that they can play

continuously. In Blind, effect steps can be randomized and can be assigned other attributes

that affect their playback.

Create an effect in Stage:

Step 1: Press [Stage].

Step 2: Press [Cue] [x] [Type] [3] to set cue [x] to the effect type. The attribute bar will

indicate that the cue is now an effect.

Step 3: Select channels using the procedure described in Select Channels, Dimmers

and Fixtures, page 86. You can select channels, fixtures, groups or focus points.

Step 4: Set levels using the procedure described in Set Levels, page 89 and Moving

Light Control, page 95. If a channel references a focus point for its level, the level

will update when the focus point is changed.

Step 5: Press [Record] [Enter]. Active channels will be recorded to step 1 of the effect.

Step 6: Repeat steps 3-5, making sure that only the channels you want to include in a

step are active. Each time you press [Record] [Enter], the next consecutive step

will be recorded.

Note:

If you want to record steps out of order, press <S7 - More Softkeys> [S8 - Step] to select

the step you want to record.

Move Before Bright (MBB)

Move Before Bright (MBB) automates the process of presetting a fixture to its position prior

to fading up. With MBB enabled, Emphasis will look ahead one cue and move any fixtures

at zero intensity to their new position in a given delay and fade time. This feature can be

enabled and disabled globally or disabled by cue. Also, new shows created in v1.7.1 and

beyond will default to MBB enabled. Shows opened in v1.7.1 and beyond, but created in

previous versions of Emphasis, will default to MBB disabled.

To use MBB, you will need to understand a few terms:

• “Dark” cue: the cue before a bright cue, in which the fixtures to be moved are at zero

intensity. MBB will move the “dark” fixtures into place after the completion of the current

cue plus the MBB delay time.

• “Bright” cue: the cue after a dark cue, in which the fixtures fade up.

• Moving: MBB presets channels that change level, or “move”, between the dark cue

and the bright cue. Channels that are at the same level, but are provided their level by

different focus points in the two cues are also considered to be “moving”.

• MBB Delay: Set in System Settings, the MBB Delay adds time between the completion

of the “dark” cue and the start of the MBB move. The default delay time is 0.

• MBB Fade: Set in System Settings, the MBB Fade sets the duration of the MBB move.

The default fade time is 5 seconds.
