4 1 Introduction This guide shows you how to use FINALE Fireworks to create new fireworks object that you can drop into a show and share with other FINALE users. This isn t a matter of starting from scratch your creation will be based on a fireworks template that defines a set of attributes and components that you can quickly and easily modify through the FINALE Fireworks user interface. In this edition of the customization guide, we ll tell you how to create your own fireworks based on a fireworks template called HBO43. The customization that HBO43 enables is ideal for creating new multishot fireworks, such as mines and cakes. You can also use HBO43 to create simple single-shot effects, such as comets and aerial shells (peonies, chrysanthemums, and so on). The component parts of HBO43 are: Launch. You can set the caliber of the mortar, the number of projectiles that are launched at a time, and the size of the arc (or cone) across which the projectiles are distributed. You can also add some randomness to the velocity with which a group of projectiles are launched. Projectile. (the HBO43 menus call this the shell). The projectile is the element that s launched a particle of pyrotechnic composition in the case of a mine or comet, or a shell for aerial effects that burst in the sky. The projectile can leave a tail, it can have a glowing tip, and it can finish in a burst that launches stars and triggers a report. You can adjust the projectile s duration (without affecting its velocity), specify the number of stars it contains (including none) and the intensity of the burst, and you can set the colors of each of its parts (one color each). Star. The stars components are like those of the projectile: A star has a tip, a tail, and a report, each with its own color. The one thing that a star doesn t have is more stars you can t use HBO43 to create a cascading break effect. Report. You can adjust the color, size, and sound volume of the reports that are attached to projectiles and stars. Note, however, that all reports use the same settings. Timing. HBO43 lets you create a repeated-launch effect think of a Roman candle (which we ll describe in the tutorial chapters). Now think of a Roman candle that swings as it sprays you can do that with HBO43. All of the customization settings and adjustments are applied through a set of sliders, menus, and other controls that are presented by the FINALE application there s no programming or file editing involved. There a lot of parameters, about 40 altogether, but you ll rarely need to use them all for a particular effect. Furthermore, FINALE automatically adjusts most of the firework attributes for you. As you increase the caliber, for example, FINALE knows that all of the downstream components need to be adjusted accordingly. Opening the Firework Design Menu The HBO43 fireworks are catalogued in the Multishot section of the FINALE fireworks inventory. To open the Firework Design menu, you drop a multishot firework into the scene, select it, and then double-click anywhere on the selection. The Firework Design menu looks like this: PAGE 4
5 Introduction The menu contains a series of tabs that contain the controls that you ll use to edit the firework that you dropped into the scene. (You may need to use the slider at the bottom of the menu to reach all of the tabs.) To see the effect that a setting has on the firework, click the Preview button. To make the changes permanent, click Apply. You can collapse a tab by clicking the minus sign to the left of its name. The minus will turn into a plus which you can then use to expand the tab: The Rest of This Guide The next few chapters in this guide introduce you to the tabs that are presented in the FINALE Firework Design menu and step you through the process of designing a variety of firework effects. The final chapter is a reference guide that provides detailed information about each of the firework design options that you ll be using. PAGE 5
6 2 Creating a Comet In this chapter we ll step through some very basic modifications in order to create a simple comet that paints a single white steak that shoots straight up, reaches its apex, and then dies as it falls. As we create this effect, we ll introduce most of the firework customization tabs and define some of the terms that we ll be working with throughout these tutorials. Firework The Firework tab lets you name your firework, and set its caliber and prefire time: Name. You can name the firework anything you like, but you mustn t use accented or other special characters. Caliber. The larger the caliber, the bigger the effect. You can adjust if you like, but since we re only creating a single firework (and so there will be nothing to compare it to), the default is fine. Prefire is the duration between launch and explosion. We ll talk about this more later. For now, leave it at its default setting, 0.0. This tells FINALE to choose a value for you. Launch salvo The Launch salvo tab sets the density of the launch how many projectiles are launched and the distribution of angles and velocities: Uncheck the Is mine checkbox. This will configure the firework so that it only launches a single projectile. It also tells FINALE to ignore the Mine thickness setting (which would otherwise set the number of projectiles that comprise the firework). The Cone angle is the angle across which the mortar launches are randomly distributed. (The cone, here, refers to the shape of the distribution it isn t a term that identifies some aspect of a firework, such as tip or star.) Since we want our comet to go straight up, we set the angle to 0.0. (Note that the HBO43 firework template doesn t let you PAGE 6
7 Creating a Comet set a specific launch angle other than straight up, although we ll modify this proscription a bit when we get to multishot fireworks.) Set the Speed Range to 1.0. We ll discuss this attribute later. Shell In pyrotechnic terms, a comet isn t a shell (and a fountain, which we ll get to later, even less so). Nonetheless, the term is useful as way to represent the velocity, angle, density, and other aspects of the projectile part of a firework. The Shell tab sets the initial characteristics for the firework s projectiles: The Longevity slider adjusts the duration of the comet s travel (without increasing its velocity). A setting of 1.0 tells FINALE to choose a duration based on the mortar caliber and other physical properties such that the comet dies just as its reaching its peak. We want our comet to fall back to earth a bit, so we re going to turn Longevity up to This might seem like quite an increase two-and-a-half times the natural duration but if you consider that the comet shoots up much faster than it falls down (and spends a fair bit of time at the apex), it s actually not that much. Abridgement adds some randomness to the timing of a multishot firework. Since our comet is single-shot, we ll set the parameter to 0. A report is a bright, violent explosion. We aren t using a report in our comet, so uncheck the Has report checkbox. Giving the comet a tip causes the projectile to glow. We re going to use the tip to simulate the comet s star, so make sure Has tip is checked. Shell Tip The Shell tip menu sets the tip s attributes: Color. In the color picker, reduce the saturation to 0.0 and increase the brightness to 1.0. This will create a bright white tip, regardless of the hue setting. Scale. This sets the size of the tip glow. We ll set the value to 1.0; this denotes the glow s natural size, based on the mortar caliber and other physical properties that are automatically simulated.. PAGE 7
8 Creating a Comet Begin and End. These set the tip s start and end points as positions along the shell s trajectory. By setting Begin to 0.0 and End to 1.0, we cause the tip to become visible immediately after launch, and endure until the comet s pyrotechnic composition is exhausted. Shell Tail We want to add a tail to our comet, so we have to set the Shell Tail parameters: Tail effect. This sets the quality of the tail. We ll use a Thin tail. Color. Again, set the saturation to 0.0 and the brightness to 1.0. This will create a bright white tail. Begin and End. As we did with the tip, we ll set these to 0.0 and 1.0 we want the tail to be visible along the entire trajectory. Shell Burst The shell burst is the point where the shell explodes and emits stars. To turn off the burst, which is what we want, make sure the No. of stars parameter is set to 0: Star, Star tip, Star tail, and Report Since we don t have stars (in the sense of an object that s projected when the shell bursts) or a report, we can skip these tabs. PAGE 8
9 Creating a Comet Cycle and Multicycle A cycle is a series of launch salvos that are spread across time, and a multicycle is a series of cycles. We re creating a single-launch effect, so set Cycle > No. of events and Multicycle > No. of cycles to 1. We ll also set the Cycle > Pattern to Straight up we want our comet to be launched straight up into the sky: Viewing the Comet We re done. Click the Preview button and you ll see the comet (shown here in a single midlife shot, and then in timelapse): PAGE 9
10 3 Comet Variations In this chapter, we re going to modify our comet to create a single-shot candle, a Roman candle, and then add motion to our creation so it fans across the sky. Single-shot Candle The candle is shot straight up leaving a tail. Halfway through the candle s life, the tail ends and a star emerges. To produce this effect, we need to adjust the tail and tip times. Go to the Shell tip tab and set the Begin and End sliders to 0.5 and 1.0, respectively: This setting means that the tip will appear halfway up the trajectory and will continue to the end. Now set the Begin and End in the Shell tail tab to 0.0 and The tail will start from the ground and will disappear just before the tip emerges, leaving a small gap between the tail and the tip. To make the effect more visible, we ll set Shell tail > Tail effect to Thick, and use the Shell tail > Color color picker to set the tail to gold. One more thing: We don t want the candle to droop at the end, so go to the Shell tab and set Longevity back to 1.0. When you re done, the candle should look like this (in sequence over time): Roman Candle To create a Roman candle, we ll declare that we want five iterations of our simple candle spaced equally in time. There are two ways to do this: We can create five cycles of a single event, or we can create a single cycle that contains five events. We re going to take the second approach. Go to the Cycle tab, and Set the number of events per cycle to 5. Set the seconds between cycles to 0.5. Select Straight up from the Pattern menu. PAGE 10
11 Comet Variations Open the Multicycle tab and make sure No. of cycles is set to 1: For this effect, we want to see a bit more of the stars and less of the tail, so we ll set the tail s Begin and End to 0.0 and 0.25, and the tip s Begin and End to 0.25 and 1.0. To vary things a bit, we ll also set the tip color to bright green, and set the tail effect to Glitter. A glitter tail is about the same size as the thin tail, but there s more variation in the size, brightness, and duration of the sparks. Our candle will now launch five bright green stars at half-second intervals: The Fan Finally, we re going to modify the Cycle settings so the candle swings from left to right as it produces stars. To create this effect, we Choose Fan left to right from the Pattern menu. We want more stars for this effect, so we also set the number of events to 15: We ll leave the Fan angle as it is (120 degrees). For variety, we ll set the Shell tail effect back to Thick and bump the End of the tail to 0.75 in order to produce a more regular, visible tail. We also change the Shell tip color to red and the Shell tail color to blue When we view the firework, we see a series of stars launched in half-second intervals starting from 60 degrees left of center and ending at 60 degrees right of center: PAGE 11
12 4 Firework Design Reference This chapter lists and describes the options that are presented in the Firework Design tabs. Firework The Firework tab sets some basic attributes of your firework Name Text hbo43 The name of the firework as it s displayed to the user. You ll definitely want to provide your own name the default is the name of the underlying template. The name mustn t contain accented characters or any other formatting. The text field only accepts simple ASCII strings. Caliber Menu 3 inch The caliber of the launching device the mortar, fountain, mine, and so on. (We ll use mortar as a catchall). The menu provides options that let you choose from among a dozen industry-standard sizes, from 1 inch to 10 inches. Caliber affects (or influences) almost all aspects of a firework it s size, velocity, and duration, in particular. It also indirectly influences the velocity of the stars that a shell produces. The two things that caliber doesn t affect are star tip size and report size. These are set by, respectively, Star tip > Scale and Report > Scale (only). As you select bigger or smaller Caliber settings, you may also want to increase or decrease the scale of the star tips and the report. Prefire Slider [0.0, 10.0] 0.0 (automatic) Prefire is the amount of time, in seconds, between the launch and the burst of a firework. The value you set here is used to place the blip that represents, on the timeline, the firework s burst; it doesn t affect the firework s composition or visual effect. If you set Prefire to 0.0, FINALE will compute the prefire time for you, based on the firework s caliber, duration, and type. For fireworks created from HBO43, the computed prefire time is (always) about a third of a second, even if the firework that you re creating contains stars. Launch salvo The Launch salvo parameters define the attributes of the firework s launch, such as the number of projectiles (shells, sparks, stars) that are launched at a time, their velocities, and the breadth of their distribution. PAGE 12
13 Firework Design Reference Is mine Checkbox checked If this checkbox is checked, the firework behaves like a mine in that it can launch more than one projectile. The number of projectiles is controlled by the Mine thickness slider. If the checkbox is unchecked, the firework will only launch one projectile, regardless of the Mine thickness setting. Mine thickness Slider [0.0, 5.0] 1.0 If Is mine is checked, this slider controls the number of projectiles that are launched during a single launch event. If you want a single projectile, set the slider to 0.0. Greater values increase the count. The maximum value produces about 200 projectiles per event. If Is mine is unchecked, the Mine thickness slider is ignored and the firework launches a single projectile. Cone angle Slider [0.0, 45.0] 20.0 The cone angle is the angle across which the projectiles in a single launch event are randomly distributed. By default, the center of the angle is straight up. If you re using a fan pattern in a multishot firework, you ll probably want to drastically reduce the cone angle so that you don t spoil the effect of the pattern. Speed range Slider [0.0, 1.0] 1.0 (automatic) By default, the velocity with which a projectile is launched is set by its mortar s caliber (and some other physical properties). The Speed range slider lets you add some randomness to this default velocity. As you increase the value the range of velocities widens, but it s always less than the default velocity. For example, let s say you re using a 10 mortar that creates a default (initial) velocity of 400 ft/sec. If you set the Speed range to 0.0, all projectiles will emerge with the same initial velocity (400 ft/sec), and will travel the same distance. If you set the Speed range to 0.5, each projectile will emerge with an initial velocity that s somewhere between 200 and 400 ft/sec, with similarly shortened paths. The default slider value, 1.0, is special: It tells the program to select a physically reasonable but fairly small range of velocities. Shell The Shell parameters define the basic attributes of a firework, such as its duration, and whether it s accompanied by a report. More detailed attributes are provided through the Shell burst, Shell tip, Shell tail, and Report tabs. Strictly speaking, some fireworks, such as fountains and gerbs, don t have shells. Nonetheless, the parameters you set here apply to all projectiles. PAGE 13
14 Firework Design Reference Longevity Slider [0.0, 5.0] 1.0 Sets the amount of time between the shell s launch and its burst (or, more accurately, the point at which it has exhaused its composition). The slider value isn t an amount of time in seconds: It s a scaler on the firework s natural duration, which is determined by its caliber, speed, and other factors. Thus, if you set the slider to 0.5, the duration for a given shell will be half as long as the duration for the same type of shell with the slider set to 1.0. The natural duration causes the shell to burst right about the time it has reached its apex. If you want it to burst while it s still travelling up, decrease the longevity. If you want it to start to fall back to earth, decrease it. Abridgment Slider [0.0, 1.0] 0.0 Abridgment adds a bit of randomness to the shell s duration. By default (with a setting of 0.0), there s no randomness all shells that are fired in a single event will burst at (approximately) the same time (as set through the Longevity slider). As you increase the Abridgment value, you reduce the duration range. A setting of 0.1 means that a shell may burst at any time after 9/10ths of the shell s duration has expired. The Abrigment setting never increases a shell s duration so that it lasts longer than the Longevity setting it can only decrease it. Has tip Checkbox checked Has report Checkbox unchecked These two checkboxes determine whether or not the firework has a tip and a report, respectively. The tip and report attributes are set in the Shell tip and Report tabs. Note that shells and stars use the same Report settings. Shell tip The tip of a shell is its leading edge. The tip can begin glowing as soon as the shell is launched and can continue through the shell s duration, ending at the burst point. You make the tip visible by checking the Shell > Has tip checkbox. You then set the tip s attributes through the parameters in this tab. A starburst filter is applied to the tip s glow. Color Color picker Bright white Sets the tip s color. Scale Slider [0.0, 5.0] 1.0 Sets the size or magnitude of the tip s glow. The default value, 1.0, is the natural magnitude, based on the Fireworks > Caliber setting. Other values act as scalers on this magnitude: 0.5 makes the tip half as large; 2.0 makes it twice as large. PAGE 14
15 Firework Design Reference Begin Slider [0.0, 1.0] 0.0 End Slider [0.0, 1.0] 1.0 These two sliders determine the points, along the shell s trajectory, at which the tip starts and stops glowing. The default settings mean that the tip starts glowing as soon as the shell is launched, and it disappears when the shell bursts. Settings of 0.25 and 0.75 (for example) would start the glow a quarter of the way along the trajectory and extinguish it a quarter of the way from the burst. The End value must be greater than the Begin value; if it isn t, the tip won t appear. Shell tail A shell s tail is the trail of glowing particles that it leaves behind after it s launched and lasting until it bursts. You make the tail visible by setting the Tail effect, below, to something other than No tail. You can then set the tail s other attributes through the rest of the parameters. Tail effect Menu No tail Lets you choose the type of tail you want the shell to display: No tail. Use this effect to turn off the tail. Thin. The particles are equally-spaced along the trajectory, and are of the same brightness and duration (although with some randomness thrown in). The particles stay fairly close to the path of the trajectory. Thick. This is the same as Thin but there are more particles, and they trace a wider path. Glitter. The glitter tail is like the Thick tail, but with the randomness turned up. The increased variation in particle and brightness gives the tail a glittery or twinkling effect. Color Color picker White Sets the tail s color. Begin Slider [0.0, 1.0] 0.0 End Slider [0.0, 1.0] 1.0 These two sliders determine the points, along the shell s entire trajectory, at which the tail starts and stops. The default settings mean that the tail is drawn from the moment the shell is launched until itbursts. Settings of 0.25 and 0.75 (for example) would draw a tail that lasts from a quarter of the way along the trajectory to a quarter of the way from the burst. The End value must be greater than the Begin value; if it isn t, the tail won t appear. PAGE 15
16 Firework Design Reference Shell burst The Shell burst parameters set some basic attributes of the stars that emerge when the shell bursts (or breaks ). Further star attributes are set in the Star, Star tip, and Star tail tabs. No. of Stars Slider [0, 100] 0 The number of stars that each shell contains. When the shell bursts, the stars are thrown in random directions away from the shell, creating a peony effect. If you set No. of stars to 0, the shell won t throw any stars, and the Star tabs, mentioned above, won t have any effect. Burst scale Slider [0.0, 2.0] 1.0 The power with which the stars break from the shell. 1.0 is the shell s natural burst power, based on the caliber of the shell and other physical properties. Other values are applied as scalers on the natural power: 0.5 means the stars are thrown half has hard; 2.0 means they re thrown twice as hard. A setting of 0.0 means that there s virtually no power the stars fall out of the break with very little outward momentum. Note that the Burst scale setting affects the sound volume of the report. If you want to create a weak shell with a loud report, you have to increase the Report > Loudness setting. Star A star is created when particles of pyrotechnic composition material are ignited and emitted by a bursting shell. The Star parameters define the basic attributes of a star, such as its duration, and whether it s accompanied by a report. Other star attributes are provided through the Star tip, Star tail, and Report tabs. Note that a star s velocity (but not its duration) is affected by the Star burst > Burst scale setting. The parameters in the Star tabs are similar, in name and function, to those in the Shell tabs. Note, however, that unlike for shells, there s no burst tab for stars (i.e., there s no Star burst tab). The stars that are defined by HBO43 can t burst into other stars. Also, an HBO43 star has only one color. Longevity Slider [0.0, 5.0] 1.0 Sets the amount of time between the star s emergence from the bursting shell and the time that its composition material is exhausted. The Longevity setting is a scalar on the star s natural duration, which is determined by the shell s caliber and other built-in physical simulated factors. Thus, if you set the slider to 0.5, the duration for a given star will be half as long as the duration for the same type of star with the slider set to 1.0. When we looked at the Shell burst > Longevity setting, we pointed out that the natural duration is approximately the time that the shell reaches its apex. The same is analogously true of a star s longevity the natural duration is about the time gravity kicks in. But it s only true if the shell s burst scale (the Shell > Burst scale parameter) is set to 1.0. For example, if the shell burst scale is decreased, the stars will droop even if Longevity is set to 1.0. PAGE 16
17 Firework Design Reference Abridgment Slider [0.0, 1.0] 0.0 Abridgment adds a bit of randomness to the star s duration. By default (with a setting of 0.0), there s no randomness all stars that are fired in a single event will burn out at (approximately) the same time (as set through the Longevity slider). As you increase the Abridgment value, you reduce the duration range. A setting of 0.1 means that a star may die out at any time after 9/10ths of its duration has expired. The Abrigment setting never increases a star s duration so that it lasts longer than the Longevity setting it can only decrease it. Has tip Checkbox unchecked Has report Checkbox unchecked These two checkboxes determine whether or not the firework has a tip and a report, respectively. The tip and report attributes are set in the Star tip and Report tabs. Note that shells and stars use the same Report settings. Star Tip The tip of a star is its leading edge as it burst from a shell. The tip can begin glowing as soon as the star emerges and can continue through the star s duration. You make the tip visible by checking the Star > Has tip checkbox. You then set the tip s attributes through the parameters in this tab. A starburst filter is applied to the tip s glow. Color Color picker White Sets the tip s color. Scale Slider [0.0, 5.0] 1.0 Sets the size or magnitude of the tip s glow. Unlike a shell tip, a star tip doesn t have a natural size that s based on the Fireworks > Caliber setting. As you select larger or smaller caliber settings, you ll probably want to increase or decrease the value of this parameter. Begin Slider [0.0, 1.0] 0.0 End Slider [0.0, 1.0] 1.0 These two sliders determine the points, along the star s trajectory, at which the tip starts and stops glowing. The default settings mean that the tip starts glowing as soon as the star emerges from the shell, and it disappears when the star dies. Settings of 0.25 and 0.75 (for example) would start the glow a quarter of the way along the trajectory and extinguish it a quarter of the way from the burst. The End value must be greater than the Begin value; if it isn t, the tip won t appear. PAGE 17
18 Firework Design Reference Star Tail A star s tail is the trail of glowing particles that it leaves behind after it s emerged from its shell, and lasting until it dies. You make the tail visible by setting the Tail effect, below, to something other than No tail. You can then set the tail s other attributes through the rest of the parameters. Tail effect Menu No tail Lets you choose the type of tail you want the shell to display: No tail. Use this effect to turn off the tail. Thin. The particles are equally-spaced along the trajectory, and are of the same brightness and duration (although with some randomness thrown in). The particles stay fairly close to the path of the trajectory. Thick. This is the same as Thin but there are more particles, and they trace a wider path. Glitter. The glitter tail is like the Thick tail, but with the randomness turned up. The increased variation in particle and brightness gives the tail a glittery or twinkling effect. Color Color picker Red Sets the tail s color. Begin Slider [0.0, 1.0] 0.0 End Slider [0.0, 1.0] 1.0 These two sliders determine the points, along the star s trajectory, at which the tip starts and stops glowing. The default settings mean that the tip starts glowing as soon as the star emerges from the shell, and it disappears when the star dies. Settings of 0.25 and 0.75 (for example) would start the glow a quarter of the way along the trajectory and extinguish it a quarter of the way from the burst. The End value must be greater than the Begin value; if it isn t, the tip won t appear. Report A report is an explosive device that creates a bright flash and a loud bang. A starburst filter is applied to the report s visual effect. Color Color picker Bright white Sets the color of the report s flash. Scale Slider [0.0, 5.0] 1.0 Sets the size or magnitude of the report s flash. Unlike other object, a report doesn t have a natural size that s based on the Fireworks > Caliber setting. As you select larger or smaller caliber settings, you ll probably want to increase or decrease the value of this parameter. PAGE 18
19 Firework Design Reference Loudness Slider [0.0, 1.0] 1.0 Sets the volume of the report s bang. The default setting, 1.0, creates a sound that s considerably louder than the sounds associated with launches and bursts. Cycle A cycle is a series of events that can be distributed in a pattern in the sky. Each event is a single performance of the effect that s defined by the previous tabs. The Cycle tab lets you set the number of events in a cycle, the amount of time between events, and the pattern that the cycle of events creates. The next tab, Multicycle, lets you create a series of cycles. The entire performance, from the first launch until the moment of the last launch (including multicycle repetitions), can last no more than 45 seconds. Because of this, the number of events and cycles that you can ask for may be less than the maximum values that are proclaimed by the number of X sliders. The effect of the last event can stretch beyond the 45-second barrier it just has to be launched within 45 seconds of the first event s launch. Events per cycle Slider [1, 100] 1 Seconds per event Slider [0.05, 5.0] 0.2 These two parameters set the number of events in a single cycle, and the amount of time, in seconds, between the start times of successive events. By multiplying the seconds-per-event by the events-per-cycle (minus 1), you get the duration of a single cycle. PAGE 19
20 Firework Design Reference Pattern Menu Curtain open Fan angle Slider [0.0, 180.0] These two parameters work together to create a fan effect over time by changing the angle of the launch of successive events. The range or pie wedge of the fan is set by the Fan angle; the fan effect is defined by the Pattern selection. There are nine effects: Straight up. This turns off the fan pattern. All events are projected straight up. Note, however, that the Shell > Cone angle is still applied; individual projectiles in an event are distributed randomly within the cone angle. Fan left to right. In this pattern, the first event is fired at an angle that s half of the Fan angle to the left of center, and successive events move in equal steps to the right, reaching the far right side of the Fan angle at the last event. Again, the cone angle is applied around each step. If you re using this pattern or any of the following patterns you may want to set the Launch salvo > Cone angle value to 0.0 (or very close) so that you don t spoil the effect. Fan right to left. This is the same as the above but moves right-to-left. Fan left to right to left. The events move twice as fast, from the left edge to the right edge and back again in a single cycle. Fan right to left to right. This is the same as the above, but from right-to-left and back again. Curtain open. In the curtain pattern, pairs of events are fired at the same time, one on the far left edge of the Fan angle, and the other on the far right side. Successive events close the gap, and the final events are fired (nearly) straight up. When you use a curtain pattern, you effectively double the Events per cycle setting. Curtain close. The same as the above, but the curtain opensfrom the center to the extremes. Curtain open and close. Events move twice as fast, opening and then closing the curtain. Curtain close and open. The same as the above, but the curtain closes and then opens. Keep in mind that in order to see the effect of the pattern, you must have multiple events within a cycle. Multicycle The Multicycle tab lets you declare the number of times you want to repeat the effect defined by the Cycle tab. It also lets you impose a time delay between each cycle... No. of cycles Slider [1, 100] 1 Sets the number of cycles. Note that the upper limit, imposed by FINALE, may be less than 100 it depends on the number and the timing of the events that you ve requested in the Cycle tab, and the time between cycles that you request by setting the next parameter. See the Cycle tab specification for more information. Seconds between Slider [0.0, 30.0] 0.0 The amount of time, in seconds, between the end of one cycle and the beginning of the next. PAGE 20
21 Firework Design Reference Seconds before first Slider [0.0, 30.0] 0.0 An initial delay that s imposed before the first cycle. Be aware that this delay does eat into the 45-second limit. PAGE 21
