grandMA3 User Manual » Fixture Types » Build Fixture Types
Version 2.1

grandMA3 allows building your own fixture types. Therefore, the grandMA3 software benefits from using a Fixture Type Editor. In this editor, it is possible to set up a custom-made fixture type using different inputs. For example:

  • DMXModes
  • Geometries
  • PhysicalDescriptions
  • Wheels

The following topics demonstrate how to use the Fixture Type Editor and provide a simple example of what a standard fixture type can look like. 

Important:
Creating fixture types can be necessary to project real-life fixtures that have not been built yet.
Important:
Instead of creating a new fixture type it can be easier and faster to take an existing fixture type and adjust only the differences!
Hint:
It is also possible to build fixtures using the GDTF Builder and import them to grandMA3. For more information, see Import GDTF.
