    Default Colour changes when fading in on quickshow timeline

    Hi

    When i fade an image in on the Timeline it comes out the wrong colours on my laser as it fades in
    When its at full brightness it changes to the correct colours

    Any ideas why?
    Is this normal?

    Could be something to do with the linearity of you laser modulation. I believe Quickshow allows you to set the linearity of each color in the settings. Check that out. Or maybe they have been messed with and are out of whack and need to be fixed.

    Its a common problem, particularly where a DPSS head is in the mix.
    In Beyond I know you can set custom curves and start/end points for every colour, but I think QS may just have a choice of linear or log (its been a long time since I fired up QS!)

    You are using Bonetti's defense against me, ah?

    I thought it fitting, considering the rocky terrain.

    I got it looking a bit better ... But not great
    I have decided against using fades now as its not perfect and looks better without them

    Thanks anyway for the advise guys

    Can you select the type of curve in QS? If so, try the other one if you haven't already.
