So these are also not working at all when im with my lights in the studio.

I have the right mode and channel and it just blinks? 6 channel mode d001, d007 etc...

I had this issue before and I used the generic RGB but I dont want to this time since i programmed a bunch with the visualizer.

Any help?

Create a NEW PROJECT
Use the 3 channel mode on the light (using address Axxx, not Dxxx)
Then load the 3Ch mode from the Online Library (WTOOLS). Select GENERIC folder and select RGB (profile to sync to Wolfmix)
Now patch GENERIC RGB to your project
Assign the address (given by Wolfmix) to the light

I don't want the 3 channel mode, I want the 6 channel mode for the rockville par 50s. why can't I get this to work?

OK, I thought you want to have a quick and working solution, that is why I recommended the 3 channel mode.
Then set you PAR 50 to a dxxx address (6Ch mode) and you get additional
* Dimmer channel (not needed on Wolfmix)
* Red
* Green
* Blue
* Auto Run channel (what for do you need the Wolfmix then when the PARs running in Auto Mode? there is no Wolfmix control when in that mode).
* Auto Run Speed (adjust the speed of Auto Run)

So you end up with 3 channels controlled by Wolfmix (RGB). Which is the same when using 3Ch mode.

Open WTOOLS and select FIXTURES.
Type "par50" into the search field, select _varied-Rockville ROCKPar50 and click on "Blue arrow" to Sync with Wolfmix
On Wolfmix load the profile into your project (from _varied folder), select 6 channel Mode and make sure your fixture is set to dxxx and match DMX addresses.

The "original" profile (Battery PAR 50) offers 6Ch only and has faulty Presets! Use the ROCKPar50 profile instead, which offers you 3Ch AND 6Ch and is working.
