Widgets FX Father

Postby sune » Mon May 14, 2012 7:51 pm

Hi I want a WD father to manage a Pandora V5 FX but can not figure out how to write the correct parameter command.

I would, for example. like to make a father who control the Mix parameter for the effect RGB KYE

Would be really happy if someone could help.

Hi Sune,

if you open the fader properties you will see an example how to write it at the bottom of the drop down menu for the parameter.

You have to type in the exact name of the effect, in your case:

RGB Key|Mix
RGB Key|Red
RGB Key|Threshold
...

Please have an exact look on the name of the parameter inside Pandoras Box. If you add the effect a second time it would be

RGB Key (2)|Mix
...

All names are case sensitiv and expect a space as far as there is one in the parameter name. Divide the effect and parameter name by a vertical bar without any more spaces.

Hi Markus,

We have put the effect Sync Color Strobe to the output and it all works, except for the "Speed" parameter.
The range of this effect goes from 32768 till 65535. So we put in a range node and a fader output node and a situation with a range node and an output put node "device control" controlling the Synch Color Strobe|Speed.

Both ways didn't work.

Any clue how can get the Sync Color Strobe|Speed under a fader?

Thanks and best regards

Hi Michel,

please try using

Sync Color Strobe|Flash Speed

I can not test it right now, but I think that was it.

Hi Michel,

you can always find the exact parameter name in the devices tab. Just open the parameter folders and right click any parameter. It will show you the exact name at the top of the context menu.
