MADRIX Forum

Hi ~
I want to create a new moving lights in madrix generator.

Can I do this? Please let me know if you have any other way.

Please.

Hello Lee,
Welcome to the MADRIX forum.
.
MADRIX is a light control solution to control the color channels of the fixtures.
When you want to control a RGB(W) moving light with MADRIX you will need an additional control solution to control the movement of this moving light. In the end you merge the DMX data of both (MADRIX and the console) and send it to the desired fixtures.
If you will use an additional console which can send Art-Net I would recommend to use a MADRIX LUNA or PLEXUS to merge the Art-Net data and send it via DMX to the fixtures. Because the LUNA and PLEXUS have an HTP DMX merger included when they receives Art-Net data from more than one control solutions.
.
When you want to create a patch with such a moving light you should add the desired moving light into the fixture library by using the MADRIX Fixtrue Editor. In the following tutorials you can learn more about the Fixture Editor:

All channels expect the color channels should be "Fixed". The Pan and Tilt must be "Fixed" with the value 0. If you don't want to control the "Dimmer" with the additional console the value of the dimmer channel must be "Fixed" at 255 otherwise the channel must be "Fixed" at value 0.
After you have create the new fixture please restart MADRIX and add it into your desired patch. In the following links you can learn more about patching in MADRIX:

Hi Guertler
Thank you for answers, but I did not succeed.
The message is "The fixture library coluld not be saved"
What is the problem?

Hello lee,
.
This issue occurs if you have not the right permissions in Windows to save the fixture library in the desired folder.
To solve this problem please start the MADRIX Fixture Editor as administrator.
In the following link you can learn how you can start the Fixture Editor with administrator permissions:
