Marquee's virtual Look Masters can be used in either an additive or inhibitive mode. The operating mode for a Look Master is determined at record time.
An additive Look Master provides proportional control of any recorded fixture levels. If an intensity attribute is recorded into a Look Master at 80%, the level will be at 80% when the Look Master is at 100%.
The home position for an additive Look Master is zero (0%).
The
levels of attributes controlled by additive Look Masters are displayed
in yellow with a Look Master symbol with a green handle
.
If your console has external slider wings your hardware can be setup to control Looks via the sliders.
he LED on the bump button for sliders that have Looks recorded to them will be illuminated. The sliders must be setup to hold Looks.
Inhibitive Look Masters proportionally scale only the intensity attribute of a fixture. If the intensity of a fixture is set to 50% by some other means, if you pull the inhibitive Look Master at 50% the output will be 25%.
The home position for a Inhibitive Look Master is Full (100%).
The intensities of fixtures being limited by inhibitive Look Masters are displayed in yellow with a Look Master symbol with a red handle .
The LED on a bump button that is setup to control an Inhibitive Look will flash if its slider is not at the top. It will flash rapidly if the slider is sitting at the bottom.
