ETC Unison Mosaic Designer v1.11.0 - Manual (Page 75)

Program - Preset types & properties
l
Start Colour - defines the hue at the start of the preset, and the saturation and brightness throughout the
preset
l
End Colour - defines the hue at the end of the preset; saturation and brightness will be the same as the
start colour
l
Reverse Direction - reverses the direction of the hue fade
The start and end colours will share the same saturation and brightness; editing the saturation or brightness for
one colour will edit the other as well.
The fade time between the colours is determined by the length of the preset on the timeline.
Matrix Presets
A range of presets from gradient colour fills to rainbow and text effects. These presets have spatial awareness
and can be applied to Pixel Matrices using the inherent 2D information to determine how they are rendered and in
what order the fixtures will
transition . They are considerably more powerful than the standard presets and allow
you to “paint” onto your fixture arrays:
Text
Renders a scrolling text message on a matrix:
l
Text Colour - the text colour
l
Base colour - the background colour
l
Period - the number of seconds that the message takes to scroll over the matrix
l
Count - the number of times that the message should scroll over the length of the preset
l
Text - the text to render
l
Offset - the percentage of the height of the matrix to offset the baseline of the text (positive is down, neg-
ative is up)
l
Text Height - the height of the text in percentage of the matrix height
l
Direction - the direction to scroll in
l
Flip - flips the text upside down
l
Mirror - flips the text left to right
l
Bold - renders the text in bold
l
Italic - renders the text in italic
l
Font - the font to render the text in
2D rainbow
Renders a dynamic rainbow effect on a matrix:
l
Colour - specifies the start colour of the rainbow (the saturation and intensity are maintained throughout
the cycle)
l
Period - the number of seconds that the rainbow takes to complete one cycle
l
Count - the number of times that the rainbow should cycle over the length of the preset
l
Type - the shape of the rainbow effect (Linear, Radial, Conical, Square, Noise, Perlin Noise or Bilinear)
l
Reverse - reverses the direction of the wave
If the Type is Linear, Radial, Conical, Square or Bilinear, the properties Angle, Repeat and Count are available:
l
Repeat - the repeat style (None, Sawtooth, Triangle)
l
Count - the number of repeats
l
Angle - the angle in degrees of the wave (Linear, Conical & Bilinear only)
