Multiple Layer of RgbMatrix Effects

I have a Problem i could not solve until now..
I have a effect for example Squares From Center, the plays (in my case) for 500 ms (Large Rgb Panel).
I want to start the effect every 400ms, so before the effects end. Currently i have the effect 2 Times (both as add and as single shot) , and the i start them manually alternately...
I want to start them as normal effekt, maybe as show or script. But i both cases i have to fix the 400ms and i want to tap this time on the show... any chance?

I'm trying to decipher your message...
So you have two RGBMatrix and you want to start them how? Every 400ms (for a duration of 500ms)? And they are identical?
But when do you want the first to start and, after that, the second? In that case, use a chaser.

thank you for your answer!
I have 1 matrix.
i have a effect that plays 500ms.
i want to start this effect every 400ms, so the effect will overlay.
i created for this a case a copy of the effect, so i have to identical effects that can overlay themself.
your write i can use a chaser oder script for if the 400ms would fixed.
The 400ms is the beat, so i want to controll this live one the show.
I didn't find a way to change the pause between the starts of the effekts when i use chaser or scripts.

A speed dial allows you to set the duration of the hold time for the steps inside your chaser.

On the Functions Tab, in the RGB Matrix Editor click the "Convert the current RGB Matrix into a Sequence" Button.
Open the Sequence: if you are lucky it created a sequence with 5 (or 10 or, 15, or 20 or ....) steps.
If so copy the values that are set in Step 1 to Step 5 and delete Step 1 (if your sequence has 10 steps: copy the values of Step1 to Step 9 and the values of Step2 to Step 10 and then delete Steps 1 and 2).
This way you have created a sequence that does the same as your 2 RGB Matrices together and will match with "your timing requirements".
