    Wav programmed like tides

    Was thinking about trying to program the wav to act like tide cycles. Left pump and right pump inverse for 6 hours. 1/2 hour both left and right. Left pump inverse and right pump for 6 hours. 1/2 hour both left and right.

    Anybody ever try to program something like that? Is it possible to do it in 12.5 intervals so the cycle acts like a real tide cycle?

    The only way to do rides changing per day is to use the moon statement and profiles. Too much work IME. The easiest but still very effective way is to just draw out the tidal curves for each and mix up the mode. I find it best not to use inverse since the percentage is based on the master and not nominal so it gets confusing quickly and looks weird on the graph.

    Thanks for the tips. Sounds like you’ve tried this before. Did you have any success with this method? Does a profile exist already?

    It takes a lot of work. It requires a plethora of virtual outlets to trigger steps and you need to define profiles for each step. At bare minimum this would take 16 VOs and 3 profiles. Even more for more than 3 levels of intensity.
