Aliases

In this tab it is possible to define the rules of replacement triggered by capabilities set as "Alias" preset.
Let's make an example. A fixture has channel 5 named "Effects" which controls the behavior of channel 6. Channel 5 has 2 capabilities: "Speed on channel 6" and "Sound sensitivity on channel 6". The latter have been set to the "Alias" preset. By default, when DMX value of channel 5 is 0, channel 6 acts as speed control. When DMX value of channel 5 enters the "sound sensitivity" capability, channel 6 becomes a sound sensitivity adjustment.
To cope with this case, you need to define 2 channels: "Speed" and "Sound sensitivity". In the fixture mode add only "Speed", since it will the default behavior when DMX value of channel 5 is equal to 0.
Then you need to define just one alias: the one that will replace the default channel "Speed" with "Sound sensitivity". QLC+ will then know what to do when the DMX value of channel 5 enters or exits the alias.

Alias Shows the list of all capabilities of all channels set as "Alias" preset. The string is in the form [Channel name] - [Capability name] [DMX value range]
In mode Select the mode where the alias must have effect
replace Select the mode channel to be replaced when the alias is triggered
with Select the channel that will substitute the "replace" channel when the alias is triggered
Add the triplet In mode X, replace Y with Z to the known aliases list
