1.

Please open the saved patch of the tutorial »Creating A Patch With Space Between Fixtures
To do so, first press the F3 key on your keyboard or go to Preferences > Patch Editor and the Patch Editor window will be opened.

2.

Click Open on the toolbar and select the saved patch file on your computer's harddisk.

3.

The Patch we have just loaded into MADRIX should look like this:

Close the Patch Editor.

4.

Change the color of the default effect SCE Color from black to red. This will help you see the patched fixtures better in the Previews of MADRIX.

Note: The darker red areas in the Previews are the areas where no fixtures are located. The bright red areas represent the patched fixtures.

5.

We want to change SCE Color to SCE Color Scroll. To do so, select SCE Color Scroll from the drop-down list of effects.

We want to continue by removing several colors from the Color Table. Click on Colors

Please delete all colors, except Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow.
Note: You can delete a color by selecting the color first and then pressing the - button.

6.

We want to change the location of the effect on the LED matrix now. Please click the Map button in the Effect Section.

7.

The Map Settings window will be opened. First, we want to change the range of the values from percentage/relative to pixel/absolute. Click the Pixel button at the bottom.

8.

Second, we want to change the size and position of the SCE Color Scroll effect. As you know, every fixture of the Patch has 4 pixels and there is space between each fixture.
We want to achieve the following pattern: Only the first two rows of the fixtures should display the SCE Color Scroll effect and every pixel of the fixtures should display the same colors at the same time. It will be like a repetition of the first fixture.
To do so, change the following settings:
 
Note: Please use the slider to change the values and while doing so have a look at the Previews and graphical mapping overview to see how the changes affect the result.

Close the Map Effect window. Then, have a look at the Preview of MADRIX. You should see that only fixtures of the first two rows display the SCE Color Scroll effect in repeat mode.

9.

Add a new Layer and change the order of the two Layers. SCE Color Scroll should be on the right side, while the new Layer should be on the left side. Change the color of the newly inserted Layer for SCE Color to Red

10.

We want to change the mapping of this new SCE Color effect to the first fixture in the third row. Select the Layer Color and click the Map button again.

11.

In the Mapping section change Position Y to 8, Size X to 4, and Size Y to 1.

Then, close the Map Effect window.

12.

In this step, change the label of the SCE Color Layer from Color to Red. Therefore, perform a double-click with the left mouse button on the label Color and now you can rename the Layer to Red

13.

In this step we want to duplicate Layer Red. Select the Layer and perform a click with the right mouse button on the Layer itself and choose Duplicate from the context menu. The duplicated Layer will be inserted right beside the selected one.
Note: If you duplicate a Layer, you duplicate all information of this Layer. This includes the settings of the Map Effect window.

14.

Change the label of the new Layer to Green, change the color of its SCE Color effect to green, and change the mapping in the Mapping section for Position X to 9. We will not change Positon Y, Size X, or Size Y, because the size of the fixture is the same and Position Y has not changed as well.

15.

Now, duplicate Layer Green. Change its label to Blue, change the color of its SCE Color effect to blue, and change the mapping in the Map section for Position X to 18

16.

Duplicate Layer Blue. Change its label to Yellow, change the color of its SCE Color effect to yellow, and change the mapping in the Mappingf section for Position X to 27

Have a look at the Previews and you can see that each fixture of the third row has now its own color effect. Each fixture of the third row has received its own effect and mapping.

17.

Finally, we want to map another SCE Color Scroll effect to the fourth row of fixtures (but this time without repetition and the color scroll should be continuous).
Duplicate the Layer Color Scroll and change its label to Color Scroll 1. Afterwards, open the Map Settings window. Change the following settings:

18.

Close the Map Settings window. Your MADRIX  Previews should now display the following effects:

Note: In the last row of the Preview you can see some darker and some brighter areas. Only at the bright areas there are fixtures patched. But for this effect (SCE Color Scroll) it does not matter if there is a fixture or not at every position. The effect will be replayed in the mapping area. The respective fixture fetches the color information at the position of the Patch.
