VU Meter Type
« on: November 21, 2017, 10:49:33 PM »
Keith - I was asking about this on the Zoom chat last night.  You said to email you but I couldn't remember your email so I figured I'd post here.

On the "Candy - Right Driveway" I am using the VU Meter effect with the Timing Event Bar.  You can see that will light up a group of nodes, all in the same color.  At the next beat, it will move to the next section and the next color.   So in this case only 3 lights are ever lit at a time.

What I was trying to accomplish is what I have shown on the "Candy - Left Driveway" using on effects to mimic what would be on and which color.  Basically trying to have the entire model lit up with different colors, with the bars of each color moving over each time the beat hits.  Not sure if I am just missing a setting to do that, or if it isn't possible at this time.  Obviously I can make this work using different effects, like the on effect, but was curious if there was an easier way to do that or not.

Thanks,

Jon

This will be called "Timing Event Bars" in .38.
