1.

In the first step we choose an empty Storage Place and activate the SCE Wave / Radial effect via the Effect button on top of the Effect section in MADRIX 5.

2.

Now we want to open the Effect Parameter Chaser for the Effect Layer. Therefor we perform a right click at the Chaser button on the top right side of the Effect Layer and select Edit in the context menu.

3.

A small but powerful window, the Effect Parameter Chaser opens.

4.

We want to add the first step of the Effect Parameter Chaser. We set the value Length and Width to 30 and click the + button at the Effect Parameter Chaser. After the + button was clicked the first entry with the current settings will be added.

5.

In this step we want to change the Description of the first entry to Small Radial. To change the Description value please perform a double click at the desired column and enter the name.

6.

To add the second step of the chaser we change the value of the parameter Length to 150 according to our task and click the + button again.

Pay attention: The Effect Parameter Chaser will always add the current value. That means you have to change the parameter value fist and add a new step after the changes.

7.

For the last step of the Effect Parameter Chaser we have to change the Width to 100 and click + in order to add another Chaser step.

8.

Now all 3 steps are added to the Effect Parameter Chaser according to our task.

In the next steps we have to change the Fade Time and the Playback Mode.

The Wait Time is already set to 1 second by default.

We have to change the Fade Time for all steps to 2 seconds. Therefor we select all Steps with the help of the keyboard shortcut [Ctrl]+[A]. To edit all lines at the same time please perform a right click at one entry of the Fade Time column and press the key 2 at our keyboard.

After the number 2 is set at the active column please press [Enter].
