Speed (chase multiplier)

The “Speed” control speeds up or slows down all chases and effects at once, without changing their settings. It’s a quick way to fit the pace of the moving light to the music, whether it has picked up energy or, on the contrary, calmed down.

📍 Where: Live → the right column, the “Speed” block (visible in both modes — DJ and Quiet Scene).

How to use:

  1. Move the vertical fader: up — faster, down — slower.
  2. The current multiplier is shown above the fader (×¼, ×½, ×1, ×2, etc.).
  3. Double-click the fader to instantly return to ×1 (the original speed).
Multiplier Meaning
×1 Original speed
×½ Twice as slow
×2 Twice as fast
Range ×¼ to ×4
💡 Tip: “Speed” and BPM are about different things. BPM sets the rhythm itself (the beats), while “Speed” is an overall multiplier on top of it. If the chases feel sluggish on a fast track, nudge the “Speed” up without touching the BPM.
💡 Tip: forgot which multiplier you left it on, and the light “can’t keep up” or “runs too fast”? Double-click the fader and you’re back to an honest ×1.
