Page 142 - 5. Shapes

Pearl 2008 Manual - 16th July 2007

• You can change the base value of a shape (e.g. the centre of a

circle) by changing the attributes using the wheels in the usual

way. You can reduce the Size to zero (see next section) to help

you see what the base value actually is.

• You can run more than one shape at a time by repeating the

above procedure. You can run several shapes on one fixture.

• Press G [Shape Generator], then B [Edit a shape] to show what

shapes are running.

• If you apply the same shape to two different groups of fixtures,

the shape will appear twice on the shape list. You can edit the two

shapes separately to give different directions, speeds etc (see

later)

• You can remove shapes from fixtures which are selected by

pressing G [Shape Generator], then E [Remove shapes from

selected fixtures].

• Each shape is designed to work on a particular attribute; the list

on the palette display shows you which attribute. Obviously if the

fixtures don’t have the attribute, you can’t use that shape on

those fixtures.

5.1.2 Changing the size and speed of a shape

It is easy to change the size and speed of a shape after it has first been

selected.

1> Press G [Shape Generator] (if you are not already in the shape

generator menu).

2> Press D [Set wheels to Size/Speed]

3> The left hand wheel controls the Size. The right hand wheel

controls the Speed. The display shows the values.

Other things to know about size and speed of shapes:

• If you have more than one shape running, the controls operate on

the most recent one. You can edit the parameters of any shape

that’s running using the Edit Shape function, see later in the

chapter.

• The minimum size is zero. This will “hide” the shape, and the

fixture will resume its previous settings. The shape is, however,

still active.

• The minimum speed is Stop. This will freeze the shape and will

offset the positioning of the fixture.

5.1.3 Spreading a shape across multiple fixtures

To get the maximum impact from a shape, apply it to several fixtures.

The Pearl has some powerful “Spread” functions which determine how

the shape is spread out across the fixtures.

This can vary from all fixtures moving identically (Coarse spread =

NONE), fixtures working in pairs (Coarse spread = 1) through to all

fixtures being distributed evenly through the shape, so the first fixture

is just starting the shape as the last one finishes (Coarse spread =

Even).

The “Fine” spread value introduces a smaller offset into the timing of

1 2 ... 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 ... 205 206
