Modifying Quasar fixtures within the EOS Fixture library.
In an effort to minimize fixture library clutter we created fixtures in single pixel and 48 pixel mode only. This guide is for when you need to modify a profile for different pixel counts.
Open the showfile that will be used.
In most cases the Quasar fixtures provided by ETC are incorrectly mapped. You can download DMX Profiles for EOS here: Lighting Console Profiles
