Programmable control over lights

Hi!

First of all big cheers for this very nice piece of software. I found it couple of days before and am trying to use for our lightning project. There is one feature we need that I have not found solution by now. I hope someone can give me a hint for solution.

We need to have light blinking with different frequency. Let's say starting with 10 Hz and then within 30 seconds smoothly transitioning into 30 Hz blinking.

I have achieved simple blink effect by defining 2 scenes (basically off and on), putting them into a chaser with loop and defined common duration (which is the blinking frequency). Now, while this chaser executes, I need to change this duration.

Can I do this somehow? Is there maybe another way to achieve such effect? Is there any more advanced scripting beyond starting/stopping the chaser? Any ideas are welcome!

Thanks,
Adrian

Add a speed dial in the virtual console and point it to your chaser as a target function.

It takes speeds in seconds/milliseconds, but has a variety of controls to enter data, including a divider/multiplier and tap button.

Then I would try to make this gradually thing working correctly.
add an extra chaser
therein 2 cue's
cue1 sends out 10Hz per loopback channel to the Speed Dial
cue2 is the one sending out the 30Hz speed info via loopback to the Speed dial.

Have a look at this quick and dirty project
