Envelopes having no effect

Post by dhmiller »

I've got envelopes on most every Resolume (7.16.0) Metaballs parameter but the Composition Monitor is not responding to them. Is there something I need to enable to get the parameters to reflect the changing values in the Envelopes? Changing the Duration settings also doesn't seem to have any impact... And the envelope I created for the Layer also is not doing anything even though when I made the changes to the parameters in the Envelope window itself the Composition monitor reflected the changes as I made them right away. I can link to a video if that would help... Thanks for any assistance.

May be a obvious question, but do you maybe have the pause button on?

Thanks for the note. Yes, toggled it several times. Must be missing something because it looks like I should have some very big changes between the different settings. I should be seeing all the changes in the Preview Monitor, correct? Does everything look okay here? The basic issue is that the Transport/Duration value does not update the duration over which the keyframe values change - i.e., when I make a change to the envelope itself, it is reflected in the Preview, but when I change the Transport/Duration from say 3 seconds to 30 seconds, the changes still occur over a 3 second period. Do I have to update to get the new Transport Duration to be reflected in the time it takes the envelope to run thru its stages?

With 3 abstract fields playing, you might not see the changes in the output. I'm not sure I would see the difference with only one of them playing ;)

Try with only one of the clips playing, and compare the output to the preview then, also make sure you're previewing the clip which is playing, and it's the same which you're adjusting.
