The Encoders
The four encoders have 6 different functions. The four basic functions are available when the button shows
Basic 1 of 2
. By tapping the button again, it will change to
Advanced 2 of 2
.
Basic buttons starting from left:
1. The first encoder is a
Master
. This master controls the intensity of the chase measured in percent.
2. The second encoder is the
Speed,
default displayed in BPM (beats per minute). This will affect the time
between the cues in the chaser. So if the speed is set to 60 BPM, the cues change every 1 second. The
speed readout can be changed in Setup->User->Settings.
3. The third encoder is the
Step
fade measured in percent. This encoder is used to set the fade time between
the steps. If the percent is 0, the chaser snaps between the steps. If it is set to 100 % it uses the time
restricted by the speed encoder. If the percent is over 100, the chaser will start fading down, before the step
is at full. The in-fade and the out-fade percent, can be adjusted individually. Read more below.
4. The fourth encoder is called
Master Fade
and manage the in-fade and the out-fade time of the chaser. The
time is measured in seconds.
To enable two more options, tap the
Basic 1 of 2
key. The key changes to
Advanced 2 of 2
.
The two encoders, starting from left:
1. On the first encoder, the
In-fade
of the steps is set. If the percent is 0, the chaser snaps between the steps,
and if it is set to 100 % it will use the time restricted by the speed encoder. If the percent is over 100, the
chaser will start fading down, before the step is at full.
2. On the second encoder, the
Out-fade
of the steps is set. If the percent is 0, the chaser will snap the steps to
zero, and if it is set to 100 % it will use the time restricted by the speed encoder.
