Mapping Advanced Moving Head models from 8 to 4
If you are mapping sequences with 8 moving heads in a sequence package and you want to convert it to 4 follow these steps.
1) Make a copy of MH1 - MH4 in your layout and name them MH1shadow, MH2shadow, MH3shadow and MH4shadow.
2) Set the fixture for each MH in the advanced model
MH1shadow = MH1
MH2shadow = MH3
MH3shadow = MH6
MH4shadow = MH8
3) Set the Start Channel for each shadow model to the beginning of the original, for example.
MH1shadow start channel should start with MH1 start channel.
Repeat for the other 3 MH's.
4) Create a group with the 4 shadow MH models.
5) Import MH effects from the sequence with 8 MH's to the group you just created.
6) Import the MH dimmer effects to your usual MH dimmer group.
