Functions as Next & Test help us in the edition and testing process.
-
The Fixture edition is leaned on Palettes & Libraries. The Parameters, Palettes and Libraries are divided into categories as dimmer, position, color, gobo, beam & x-tra to do a edition more intuitive and quick.
-
Hydra Plus has preprogrammed palettes, that can be used with any Fixture, directly. These palettes are a great help until the user programs his Libraries.
-
Timings, as times references, permit us to divide, conceptually, a cue or group (htps, ltps, channels, gobos, colors, etc.) obtaining that each conceptual group fades in scene with at the desired moment and time.

-
Response Curves, for conventional channels, some preprogrammed and others programmable.
-
Fixture definition that permits create, import, export and edit the parameters definition, including texts for each one of the parameter steps. The Fixture Patch has the XY function to obtain a homogeneous movement of each fixture in accordance with the trackball movement.
