Using {Offset} in Patch
Using the {Offset} feature in patch allows you to force a numerical offset between the starting
address of channels in patch or for offsetting your channel selection. This feature is useful when
you have configurable devices in your show, such as a Source Four Revolution, which has option
slots for additional addresses (scrollers, indexing pattern wheels, and so on), or when you want to
start your addresses at some known multiplier.
• [1] [Thru] [5] {Type} {Source Four Revolution} [At] [1] {Offset} [3] [1] [Enter] - fixtures will
be patched with a patch address offset of 31 channels, allowing you to have additional space
within the patch for a given fixture type regardless of configuration or personality.
• [1] [Thru] [2] [0] {Offset} [2] {Type} {VL1000} [At] [1] {Offset} [2] [0] [Enter]- selects every
other channel in the list and patches them with an offset of 20 addresses.
