The MA3 MAtricks Crash Course - Make Amazing Effects/Transitions In 9 Minutes!!
great video, very helpful. I'm pretty new to lighting (of this type. I have some nightclub background), and I happen to be learning on Grand MA 3. Doing pretty well, but this was helpful, as well as your video on adding truss (I was looking for a way to add a stage platform, and the truss video got me going down the right path). Just so I undestand, you still have to add the fixtures to your 3D layout individually, but the marker just helps you control them as a group, right?
you legend thank you
Help me someone! How can i learn the software if the 7day trial ends? Its fully crash out…
Its been 2 years and this video is still helpfull
good video, thanks!
Did they remove the button ? I can't find it on my edit button for the dimmer one... looking to stomp the effect without having the dimmer going to 0, like on MA2 gheee
Yea, they that took that function away! 😢
your explanation is hard anyway thanks
Im trying to watch... but the lip smacking is driving me crazyyyy lol :(
Found this video very helpful and really basic... Like a newbee can get started with this... thanks John...
Hello mate, thanks for the video but I got in some trouble, so...If I try to do the same macro "clear clear clear" dosnt work with one shot, need to press 3 times, also all the time that I open the edit macro the voice "follow" is in red, and i can't create or use any new macro, an tips? Thank you in advance
Hello mate, I got one question when I open the edit of the macro the voice "Follow" show up red, any tip why?
How do you add a list with fixture and truss counts? Thanks
to old
Is there anyway to add music to the software? to be able to timecode a show of some sort?
Yea there is i forgot how though
In 2.0 you can
great explanation, really thanks
this is awesome but how does it work in terms of trying to actual program it? like how do you go about connecting them to an object or having them follow?
Hello, in my build there is the dmx footprint =0 What i am doing wrong? Thx
New to ur channel here, thanks for all these tutorials, what happened to the "Park" feature? It's not on the latest version I think,it was hit "pause" twice to park ur fixture. U have a video on that? Thanks for time and making these vids.
I owe you my life!!!!! This video was REALLY helpful! Thank you so much!
Hello mate, awesome video, I have a question, what if I want chose a fixture generic dimmer for machine that doesn't exist fiture and I want control just dimmer and cto for white temperatures? Thank in advance
Is there a way to get more lines to run once you've confirmed? Trying to make rig on/off buttons and want to have a confirmation before the rest of the macro runs. Thanks!
Thank you!
Why is my deafult design layer different than yours? I'm using the exact same version. Could it be because my loads in metric because of where I am and yours is imperial?
thank you! :)
When will there be upcoming videos with further Spotlight tutorials? Your crash course was brilliant and got me started with VW at all! Love how you explain it in a short and simple but also very extensive way. Please keep doing this videos :)
Absolutely wild timing, could use this greatly! Thanks for spreading knowledge!
Thanks!
you should learn more about keyboard shortcuts
Just made this, works like a charm. Thanks!
Either I am doing something terribly wrong or this doesn't work in the same way on newer software versions
im noticing some discrepancies too
Is there a faster way to add lines? Like, what if you have 100 references to input :/ - there’s a feature request and a half. Add ref = popup (how many) ect
how do you make the truss longer in length or do you just need to keep adding different parts ie 500 , 501 , 502 ect ect till I have like 5 pieces of truss in a line
Merge Children...... Found it.
GMA3 Newbie here. I noticed when I went to make a new fixture and was in the fixture edit screen I did not see an attributes tab until I hit the down arrow on the dmx channel and saw a logical channel. I did not see that on your video. Is it something in settings that im missing? Different version of MA3 on PC maybe? Thank you. Keep up the great videos
Great Tutorial! Could you make a video creating a pixel fixture from GDTF builder and importing/modifying it? I tried to create a LED par light with 4 rings of control (in GDTF-share) and hitting some roadblocks while using it in MA 3D -- Love your content and learning a lot from your tutorials
"I hope this has been really helpful,." Oh, yes. From these principles, I can work out a lot. Well done, and thank you. Subscribed.
GOOD JOB I START GMA3 WITH U THANK U
Hi Johanthan, Thx for this video! Is there coming an in deep version soon?
Thank you! I had never opened VW before and your video was the first one I found on TH-cam. I have learned a lot and this video got me excited to continue this new journey. Thank you!
its not that hard as i thought
Omg. Slow down! Every single step you showed took me multiple tries because you were either too quick flipping through settings, or the settings I put in somehow turned out differently than when you did it. Maybe a quick pause and explanation of what parameters I'm actually applying as I apply them, and give me a second to actually do it. I've had to hit pause on this video like 100 times already.... gahhh
lol just pause the video and go back if needed.
You can reduce speed in you tube to 75%
quick question, how do you memorise the command lines when building the macros? do you have the terminal running in another window or do you just sort of know the lines after practising?
just watching this now can anyone help me my screen is zoomed in the app how can i zoom out
you prob have smaller screen than him
Thank you very much for sharing. Also, do you know how to limit the lifting range? For example, 0-6m.
Hi have a real problem and can not find a solution. for example, as soon as I open the demo show in GrandMa3, beams, gobo and spot are displayed correctly. As soon as I click once again on the 3d window, all beams and spots disappear and the lamp only lights up (like a LED fixture) without producing any beams. I can't undo this either. In the render option all beams etc. are activated with over 100%. Can someone possibly help me? Thanks and greetings
Thank you for your video. I have received a lot of inspiration.❤
hello, why in dark mode the scenic structures are with a brick appearance? is it possible to have the bridges as in wired mode. THANKS. Vectorworks 2023
A great use for this is to limit a fixture as well. So say you have some house lights that never need to go out fully. You can set this here. I have done this for aisle lights and exit lights. You can also do this in the reverse way, say you have lobby lights that never need to go past a certain level.
Thank you so much for this video. It really helped me A LOT! Fantastic!
Am I just blind, or is the Eurotruss 3-way corner missing in ma3?
