Re: [LCtalk] Transparent Mix Modes Thru MIDI

[Ed Kelly]

I'm sure I'm sending to the correct engine & that MIDI mapping is 
correct. I wish I could run LCedit at the same time to visualize what is 
going on in the LCM. I'm using Logic to sync midi commands to music. I'm 
always unplugging MIDI and hooking up serial and them rebooting the 
LanBox every time I need to tweak a cuelist. Then unplug and plug MIDI 
back in and reboot the LanBox again.

I have a colored light (say blue) on a lower layer and am wanting to 
fade the next higher layer from red to nothing (not black) reveling the 
blue color on the lower layer. The end result would look like a simple 
fade from blue to red and back again. When in LCedit it works fine if a 
set the lower layer (blue layer) to a transparency with a depth of about 
90%. But when controlling through MIDI I get strange results. The most 
typical is that it looks like the red fade in properly over the blue 
layer but when fading out the red just shuts off with no fade blinking 
right back to blue again.
