In this BEYOND tutorial video, you will learn how to: 1. Create a Master slider effect, in the Universe window 2. Set a multi-zone time shift, for the Master slider effect 3. Create a Master slider effect, together with color effects 4. Prepare your Zone settings, for use with the multi-zone time shift fader 5. Create a fader for adjusting the multi-zone time shift, using MIDI to PangoScript Settings 6. How to assign Master slider effects, to an APC20, APC40 or similar MIDI device's faders and knobs.
Enabling the BEYOND Universe, in the Right-Tab area
How to create a new Universe layout and Master slider effect with a simple oscillating effect for position Y
The name of this layout will be used inside of the PangoScript editor later
This effect works the same as a Master effect inside of the FX grid. You can adjust the parameters anyway you like and see the results in real time
Now you will copy the existing effect in the Universe and set the time shift for the new Master slider effect
In this example, we use the Zoom effect, to reduce the size so that we can avoid clipping the window with larger cues However, this is not necessary and you can perform this function, however you prefer
Now we will set the time shift (metronome BPM shift)
How to create a Master slider effect with a color effect built-in
The process is very much the same as before...
You can also set a multi-zone time shift, if you want to
How to prepare the Zone settings for the creation of a multi-zone time shift fader
You need to assign a name for each zone that you will use inside of the PangoScript editor
We use "Zone 1" for the first zone "Zone 2.for the second, etc.
If you decide to use other names you need to change the names inside of the PangoScript editor
How to create a fader, for adjusting the multi-zone time shift using MIDI to PangoScript settings
Assign the touch fader, that you want to use
Use a script for 4 projection zones and 4 FX lines, in the FX grid First, use "Zone 1", without shift
These are the Zone names you assigned in the Projection Zone settings menu
This is an index, of the FX line, in the FX grid
This is the value of time (clock) shift, for each FX line and each projection zone
This is the value of the metronome (BPM) shift for each FX line and each projection zone
Lets test it out
Select all Zones that you want to use (Ctrl + click on the Zone)
Click on the Zone button, in the FX grid You can see the adjustable multi-zone time shift working only with Zone FX
Try it with any cue
Run any of the FX, in lines 1-4
How to assign object names, for Master slider effects
These names will be used in the PangoScripts
Assigning faders or knobs of APC20 or APC40 for Master slider effects
Touch the fader, that you want to use
This is the name of the page, in the Universe window
This is the object name, of the Master slider effect that you want to assign to this fader
Touch the fader that you want to use
We just copy scripts from the text file and paste them in BEYOND
This is the script, for the Master slider effect with time shift
Touch the fader that you want to use
This is the script, for the Master slide effect with color FX built-in
Now you're finished!
