Controlling Beam Functions

This window can be opened by selecting the BEAM button from the home window.

First, select one or more fixtures then any of the beam control options can be used. If you are going to use the same beam attributes in more than one cue, consider saving them to a palette. Palettes are referenced in cues, so modifying a palette will change every cue the palette is used in.

  • Beam Palettes. Press Record button and use the green + button to add your own.

  • Default Palette - select to return to beam defaults.

  • Beam encoders - pull out to select ranges, or use on window if no encoders (QuickQ 10 and Remote App).

  • Iris can be controlled directly on the window as well as by the encoders. Pinch the iris icon in or out to adjust.

  • Zoom can be controlled directly on the window as well as by the encoders. Pinch the zoom icon in or out to adjust.

  • Fine encoder control - don’t forget to turn off when finished!

  • Beam control pages - other options and effects, one of which is gobos.

Alternatively a long press and hold on the encoder tab will show selection boxes for those ranges for any given encoder.

You can hold on the palettes at the top of each tab and drag them into an order that works better for your workflow.
