Hey thanks, appreciate your time, I've spent hours trying to find a patch that I could use in their place, I,m running them through a dimmer pack, it would be nice to have a patch for them though, Thanks!

If u have them on a dimmer pack how many channels are you using? How many ropes do u have? and why not just use a generic profile? Let me know.

Well you could use a or 64 profile and when the beam comes on then you'll know the ropes are on. But as of right now there is no 3D object for the ropes. Does the flash rate accelerate as you bring that channel up to full on?

Is there a single strobe light that only takes one channel in the library that I could use, as far as the flash rate I,m not sure because I,m still adding fixtures and building my stage, get ready ,I still don,t know how to create scenes and use this thing yet, Ive read through the manual, but there,s gonna be lot of playing with this thing!
