When Auto Mask is ON, (under Options on the encoder touch screens Palettes mode)
activating a Preset from a Position, Beam or Colour pane, only applies the preset to that pane’s
type of attribute.
Encoder touch screen Palettes mode, Auto Mask.
Palettes tab, Auto Mask.
For example: A “CB preset” appears in both the Colour Presets and in the Beam Presets. When
“Auto mask” is ON, applying the “CB preset” from the Colour Presets pane only applies the
preset to Colour attributes of the selected fixtures. Applying the “CB preset” from the Beam
Presets pane only applies the preset to Beam attributes.
When "Auto Mask" is OFF, activating a Preset from a category pane applies the preset to all
types of attributes contained in that preset.
Hint: You can achieve the same result as Auto Mask OFF by right-clicking and selecting
‘Activate (unmasked)’.
Presets and freesets in Favourites panes are applied to all of the attributes shown in their
individual icons.
19.15 APPLYING DYNAMIC PRESETS
Presets and freesets in the Dynamic Presets pane are applied in the same manners as other
Presets and Freesets (above) but you can also choose the following options that affect how the
dynamics are applied and maintained.
19.15.1 Masking Dynamic Presets
If a Dynamic Preset or Freeset controls multiple IPCB (Intensity, Position, Colour, Beam) attribute
groups, the IPCB filters in the Palettes window allow you to activate only the selected (IPCB)
aspect of the effect. When an IPCB button is green, the dynamic will be applied to that attribute
group.
Click either I, P, C or B to select only that attribute group. Hold Function whilst clicking to select
multiple groups. The IPCB selectors also allow you to simplify your selection choices because only
those Presets or Freesets that affect the selected (IPCB) attributes of the effect are available.
19.15.2 Base
When a dynamic is applied, there is a base value plus a waveform that is applied over that base.
Therefore, if you apply some programming to a fixture then apply a dynamic, the programming
will be replaced by the base value plus the waveform.
