creating a moving circle cue in Beyond.
Hi Guys,
You know that moment that just a day before building up a show you realize you need a laser cue and you completely lost how to do stuff in Beyond ?
Well... i have.
I am doing a Pink Floyd tribute band show and want to do it in Beyond this time.
Last time we used LivePro, but since i really suck in Live Pro and don't use it often enough i have to make all cues and stuff again.
McCarrot and SrS helped me do that show and it was excellent, the people were impressed, band was really happy.
McCarrot did an excellent job, but uses LivePro a lot more than me, so i am worried to screw things up if i forget to press a small triangle shaped icon to get output and stuff.
In the song Sorrow, the is a middle part were a circle is just moving from left to right.
I tried with PJ yesterday via timeline, but i thought it could be done easier by making a new shape.
Experimented some, but had to use bounce but i want an evenly motion.
And then it would be great to have the same circle but then also rotating and made of dots (i know how to make the circle dotted and rotate effect can be applied) So this i can do if i know how to make the circle move from left to right. But without bounce. But when i use pingpong the circle just moves from left to right.
Furthermore i want to know if someone can help me create a cue consisting of 2 dots that circle around each other, or basically 2 dots spread 180 degrees from eachother that both circle the outline of a circle (so you end up with 2 static beams that circle around eachother).
I found that from the Static beams tab below i can position all the static beams on my mirrors and appoint them each a QM (i will be using 3QMs) and save those to the current selected cue. Handy feature and thanks francesco for the explanation at PLS about the routing part.
Hopefully someone can be of help and explain to me how to do this (either one or both effects).
I will start creating the workspace tonight with all the cues for each song, so can load it up and press the buttons at the right time.
In the mean time i will check the forum to see if someone posts something ;-)
Thanks guys, in the end all will be fine, but i am nervous as hell right now. Took the whole day off tomorrow for transporting all the stuff and build up. friday is show day (today news reached me 1700 tickets already sold.... so there are enough people to see me screw up...eh do a nice show). The day after is a dance party with artists like Captain Jack, Party Animals, 2 Brothers on the 4th Floor and the Venga Boys. I will do that do and expect even more people to show up.
So that's cool and for that i am not worried, but i am mean, Pink Floyd tribute, mother of God, hey it has to be good right ?
That does make me nervous.
thanks in advance people, now i will go eat some and continue.
hope to read lots of replies !
I didn't fail !
I just found out 10,000 ways that didn't work.
