Audio Input Playback
You can use an external stereo source to control playback
through any or all four playback modes listed below. Audio
input playback affects how initialized pages play back,
regardless of whether those pages are part of a loop or not.
To enable audio input playback, plug your stereo source into
the Stereo Audio Input connector on the controller’s rear
panel as shown in the section titled “Other Connectors” on
page 2-23.
Also see the section titled “Random Advance” on page 6-29.
• Audio 1 advance (User 3 key): Pages advance with the
amplitude of the audio signal.
• Audio 2 advance (User 5 key): Page advance pauses
with the amplitude of the audio signal.
• Color modulate (User 2 key): Cycles through the six
positions on the color wheels of all active fixtures with
the beat of the audio signal, overriding the Color
construct settings.
• Dim modulate (User 6 key): Light intensity of all active
fixtures changes with the amplitude of the audio signal.
You can adjust how much the dim varies (from full dim
to full bright, or a small dim change resulting in a
“flickering” effect) using the
<Audio> knob, as shown in
Figure 6-4:
