Phaser doesn't start at first fixture

To me your issue sounds like a description of the 'Sync' feature.

Maybe you unintentionally have enabled this feature for the cue(part) or programmer?

If i disable sync in sequence, it starts somewhere, almost randomly, depending of the speed if i understand well.

judging on your workflow description in other posts, this might be the case, (and expected outcome) based on given parameters.

please consider to use

Step 1 Full

Step 2 Zero

rather than the opposite, as described in your workflow of other posts:

Step 1 Zero

Step 2 Full

when you want "Full" to happen as a specific time, independent of speed.

the timeline of a secondary step will by definition depend on the speed and width of earlier steps.

Hi Andreas I had the same issue on a show.

Could you explain when stored in a sequence and assigned to a speedmaster which step the phaser starts on a go?

In my cue I programmed a small effect something like:

Step 1 Strobe Width 100
Step 2 Release Width 100 // more
Step 3 Release Width 100 // and
Step 4 Release Width 100 // more
Step 5 Release Width 100 // width
Step 6 Release Width 100 // to
Step 7 Release Width 100 // demonstrate
Step 8 Release Width 100 // the issue

What I want is that when the sequence is off and given a go it starts to the nearest of step 1, is that possible?

When the speedmaster is in range 0-50 of a beat it should start at step 1

When speedmaster is in range 50-100 of a beat it should start at step 8

There seems to be an issue in the current release with phaseclock in combination with speedmasters.

After you have assigned the sequence to an external speedmaster, all bets are off regarding where in the cycle the phaser starts, even if you remove the speedmaster assignment again.

If you need a dedicated startpoint of the phaseclock more than the speedmaster, you can copy the sequence to a fresh new sequence slot, and remove the speedmaster assignment (before you start it)
