Chapter Twelve:
Creating New Labels
The LP-3000 Moving Light Controller includes a library of labels for many common
Moving Light fixtures.
You can easily add new labels for use with label programming.
You can also edit labels—factory presets or those you have created. This feature is
very powerful when used to adjust focus positions, some of which change on a daily
basis. Using focus labels allows all cues to be adjusted for changes in the stage
setup with a single edit.
Creating Labels
In many cases, each property of a Moving Light is controlled by only one attribute.
For example, color is controlled by an attribute called Color Wheel 1 and beam is
controlled by an attribute called Iris.
Some of the more sophisticated instruments use multiple attributes to control a
single property.
For example, some fixtures employ color mixing, which allows three basic colors to
be mixed to produce a wide spectrum of color. Similarly, the more complex
fixtures—such as the Intellabeam 13 Channel and the Martin Pal1200—contain
many beam attributes. Among the beam attributes are:
•
Gobo
•
Iris
•
Shutter (including PAL shapes)
•
Zoom
As a result, several attributes may be present when you are creating a new label for
a property of a fixture.
