• Comments Regarding the Freeze Button:
  
  • If the freeze button is pressed, the output will freeze.
  • After releasing the button the output continues.
  • Double clicking the freeze button freezes the output permanently.
• Comments Regarding the Speedmaster:
  
  • The speedmaster works with actual bpm values individually for each layer of the current storage place.
  • Here is an example:
  • - Storage place A1 includes 2 layers
  • - Layer one uses the color scroll effect with a left direction and a bpm value of 600
  • - Layer two also uses a color scroll, with a top direction, and a bpm value of 120
  • - The speedmaster is set to a value of 2.0. This means the first layer runs at 1200 bpm and layer two runs at 240 bpm.
  • It is possible to set up the speedmaster to a value ranging from -10.0 to +10.0:
  • A value of 0.0 means that all the effects are stopped.
  • A value of 1.0 means that effects run at the bpm speed selected in the effect dialog.
  • Values higher than 1.0 accelerate the speed of effects.
  • Values lower than 1.0 but higher than 0.0 slow down effects.
  • Negative values will reverse the direction of effects.
  • But please remember that not every effect (in particular S2L and M2L effects, which process live audio signals) can run in reverse mode!
• Comments Regarding Pause:
  
  • If the pause button located below the speedmaster fader is pressed (and held), the effects stops immediately.
  • Effects continue when the button is released.
  • A doubleclick on the pause button stops the effects permanently.
  • But please do not mistake this function for the freeze button of the main out. While pressing the freeze button, effects are still running; only the output is frozen.
• Comments Regarding Frames - frameid:
  
  • Some effects, like SCE Color Scroll, have a fixed number of frames depending on the settings of the effect.
  • Because of this, a fixed number of frames of this effects can be looped and consequently it is possible to play them reverse.
  • Besides, there is the possibility to assign a particular frame number (frameid) of the effect to be shown.
  • With the new MADRIX V2.5 and several MIDI hardware controllers it is possible to manipulate the frameid of effects,
  • independent from the effect being stopped, paused, or still running.
  • With the Behringer BCD2000/BCD3000 or Numark NuVJ/TotalControl it is possible to manipulate the frameid with the jogwheel.
