Subchannel at minuslevel

Post by Johan Söderberg »

Heres another fun problem I managed to give myself.

I created a symbol with all device info for ADJs "Flat Par QWH12".

In a few spots of Apples RGB colourpicker, way out on the red side, the lamp suddenly turned lightgreen. At a closer look I found that the green channel was given a negative dmx value in all those spots.

Its no problem, I had to look carefully to find those few instances again, but might be good to know that some reds can have so very little green in them that they become "minusgreen".
The peakvalue I could find was minus 5.
The somewhat surprising result of that, coming out of the lamp, is actually quite green :)

I've tried and tried to reproduce this. But haven't been able to. In any case, negative levels are now trapped and cannot be set using the channel controls window.

Also in the latest build is an addition to OSC support. LXConsole will now respond to OSC commands with the address /cmd.lxconsole/<command>. This does not require configuring in the Setup window. This means that an app like TouchOSC can send OSC messages to LXConsole with commands that are not preset in LXConsole. This makes it easier to create TouchOSC controllers. Any command line command can follow the first part of the address "/cmd.lxconsole/". Parameters can be added using the same rules for %p, %f and %s as in setting up OSC actions in the setup window.

Examples:
/cmd.lxconsole/1@%p <- a TouchOSC slider that controls the level of channel 1
/cmd.lxconsole/21@Frame3 <- a TouchOSC button that sets channel 21 to frame 3
