Adding Events to Tracks

To add events to a track:

  1. Select the track by clicking on its color in the left column.
  2. Position your cursor in one of the track’s time bars and right-click.
  3. A window appears, click on « Add Event ».

  4. A diamond appears at the selected location.

Add as many events as you like to the different tracks.


Note: Each event (diamond) corresponds to the state of the outputs at that moment.

Modifying Event Output Values

Each track represents one or more DMX channels, and each event represents one or more values at that moment.


By clicking on the diamond (event) of the track, you can view the values associated with that event at that moment at the bottom of the screen.


Values associated with an event


Each potentiometer corresponds to a channel.

DMX channel potentiometers


The output value of a DMX channel ranges from 0 to 255. You can choose your desired value by dynamically adjusting the potentiometer button.


Value adjustment buttons

  • Set the value to its maximum


  • Set the value to its minimum


  • Set the progression mode. Immediate value change


  • Set the progression mode. Gradual value change from the previous point


By selecting the gradual mode, the output value evolves from the value of the previous point to the new value of the new point. This function can be used to achieve gradual lighting or dimming of a light, or to create movement from one position to another.


Modifying the 8-Output Track

The principle is identical for placing events. Click on the switch representation to open or close it.
