Hi,

I have a little annoyance, yet very logic it happens..
One of the fixtures I'm using has its dimmer channel split into dimmer (1-134) and strobe (135-256).
This causes this type of fixture to look very dim on max brightness in the 2D fixture monitor (compared to the other fixtures).
Sometimes confusing...

Is there a way to get around this?

e.g., two types of fixtures, both at the same intensity level.

Read the complete manual and Channel Modifiers are the way to go it seems:
https://docs.qlcplus.org/v4/fixture-man ... properties
Created a linear modifier that maxes out at 134.

Will still see how the strobe fuction can be brought back to life, but maybe I can just create a duplicate of that original channel in the fixture definition and assign it also a range (135-200).
Alternative: let QLC+ do the strobing (this way it can also happen in sync between the fixtures)
