Beam 2 - No lights beyond Universe 2 activating in Capture

Hello,

I have a Capture SE stage plot with about 48 Led tubes and 20 moving heads. It worked fine in Beam 1.

Now in Beam 2 (demo), the old Beam project file will not load due to a problem with the Acme Colour Fusion CF 205 fixture profile.

So I have made a new one project file, I have patched the fixtures, but nothing beyond Universe 2 lights up.

Is this a limitation of the demo?

Thanks

Hey @Hungry_Man,

Have you added CITP Universes for all your universes to Beam’s Inputs/Outputs? Beam - Ampco Flashlight Studio 1 fixture patch used by the Beam Demo Project only uses 2 universes of fixtures and I/O configuration for that is automatically loaded whenever you load it via the Open Demo Project… - if you are working with more than that, you’ll need to add them yourself:

Is this a limitation of the demo?

No, the Trial version is fully functional, the only limitation are periodic DMX blackouts.

the old Beam project file will not load due to a problem with the Acme Colour Fusion CF 205 fixture profile.

That’s most likely due to the factory profile for this fixture being renamed in Beam 2. If you want to open the old patch in Beam 2, you can:
a) send us the fixture patch (here or to firstcontact@showsync.com) and we’ll fix it for you
b) add this fixture profile to the new fixture profiles folder (Documents/Beam/Fixture Profiles/User): ACME Color Fusion CF-805 - 24ch.sbf
