  • Hello!

    Sorry... but obviously your questions has been just forgotten due to the other topics. So I try to answer:

    when i save effect in the DMC3 and restarts it my effects disappears.

    You have to save your parameterized effect into a cuelist as well as simple light scenes. When you just select the effect and set the parameters in the device control, the effect is just saved temporarily in the progarmmer, where all values are collected for saving them into a new cue of a cuelist or update a existing one. The content of the programmer will be deleted always, when you close your project.

    The position control of the softdesk supports currently indeed only the range from -90 to +90 degrees for both axis. The current solutions are:

    • You use to sliders instead of the position control.
    • You do some kind of "magic" in the connection set in the input assignment and convert the values from the range -90 to +90 in the normalized range -1 to +1. With the normalized values you continue with a position master, where you can define your own range.

    I hope, you get an first idea how to handle your issues. If there are further questions, don't hesitate to ask.
