Setup - Adding & organising fixtures

Once you have the plan setup as desired you can start populating it with the fixtures as required for the install-

Fixture Library

Unison Mosaic Designer incorporates a comprehensive fixture library grouped by manufacturer. A generic man-

switched such as fans or smoke machines.

A custom manufacturer is created when you make your own fixtures, either by right-clicking on a fixture within the
library picker (not once placed on the plan) and selecting Customise Fixture to use this fixture as a starting point,
or by pressing the Fixture Editor button at the top to create a fixture from scratch. Both operations will open the

Note however that common settings such as colour & gobo slots, size, shape and dimmer curve etc. can all be
set on an individual fixture basis using the Fixture Configuration pane once the fixture has been deployed and
selected, so creating a custom fixture library entry,a relatively complex process, may not be necessary.
