Color Mix Mode
The main module of the impression X5 features 16-bit color mixing with RGB, RGBL and
x;y (CIE 1931) color control. You can change the color mixing mode using the Fixture
Settings → Color Mix Mode setting (see ‘Color Mix Mode’ on page 16) or via DMX on
the Special/Control channel.
Sub module color mixing is always RGB.
Mix Priority
The Mix Priority channel defines how the color mixing output of the Main module and
the color mixing output of the Sub module are merged together – or which value has
higher priority – in the X5’s color mixing output.
The default setting (DMX 000) is Main and Sub (HTP), where the highest color value of
the Main or the Sub module determines the output color.
The Mix Priority channel gives the following options:
● Main + Sub (HTP) – The fixture takes whichever color value of the Main module or
Sub module is highest and uses that value to determine the output color (Highest
Takes Priority).
● Main Only – The Sub module color value is ignored. The fixture uses the color value
of the Main module.
● Sub Only – The Main module color value is ignored. The fixture uses the color value
of the Sub module.
● Main + Sub additive – The Sub module color value is added to the Main module
color value. The fixture uses the sum of both values.
● Main - Sub subtractive – The Sub module color value is subtracted from the Main
module color value.
● Sub - Main subtractive – The Main module color value is subtracted from the Sub
module color value.
● TrueColor Main over Sub Snap – Sub module color stays in the background. Main
module color has higher priority and will not mix with Sub module color. As soon the
Main module color value is greater than zero, Sub module color blacks out and the
fixture uses the Main module color.
● TrueColor Sub over Main Snap – Main module color stays in the background. Sub
module color has higher priority and will not mix with the Main module color. As
soon as Sub module color value is greater than zero, Main module color blacks out
and the fixture uses Sub module color.
● TrueColor Main over Sub Crossfade – Sub module color stays in the background.
Main module color has higher priority. If you fade in a Main module color, Sub
module color will crossfade to the Main module color.
● TrueColor Sub over Main Crossfade – Main module color stays in the background.
Sub module color has higher priority. If you fade in a Main module color, Sub
module color will crossfade to the Main module color.
