For example, you position some fixtures to the right then apply a circle dynamic preset. The
dynamic moves the fixtures to the centre (its base position) then causes them to circle around
the base.
If you want to use your programming as the base for a dynamic effect you can do so by de-
selecting the Base button. The Base filter masks the base values from dynamic Presets and
Freesets when they are applied.
For example, you position some fixtures to the right, de-select Base, then apply a circle dynamic
preset. The circle will be added to the existing position values instead of replacing your position
values with its base values.
19.15.3 Preserve Dynamics
Selecting a preset or freesets will usually replace any existing programming. There are times
when you might want to apply a dynamic effect then apply a non dynamic preset or freeset to
position the dynamic effect. To preserve any existing dynamics click Preserve Dynamics then
apply the non-dynamic presets or freesets.

19.16 CONTROLLING DYNAMICS
The settings of the dynamics can then be varied by either:
Selecting the Dynamics mode on the encoder wheel touch screen and adjusting the
controls as described in the Dynamics section.
Using the playback faders in “extended fader controls” mode. See section 8.7.16 for
details.
Using the “Rate” and “Amp” controls in the Palettes window.
To vary the rate you can either enter a value, click the up and down arrows or move the “spin
box” roller which provides smooth variable control. Just click then drag with the mouse to activate
a virtual spin roller wheel that adjusts the box values. When adjusting the value, you can drag
over the entire height of the screen. If you hold [Ctrl] (PC) or [Cmd] (Mac) and click and drag,
then when your mouse pointer moves above or below the virtual wheel it continues to spin with
inertia.
