discover Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 With FLX S24 Version 7.14 I had programmed an run a show using playback on faders, which has worked out fine. During the show for a special scene it became necessary to manually change the position and colour of the moving heads using the CHANNEL mode. Returning back to the PRESET mode, I could run/follow the next presets, but after the last preset, I could not get an complete blackout. The manual setting remainded. a) What is the easiest way to get a complete blackout in such a situation? b) Is there a better way to perform manual changes during a show using preset?

DALX Posted December 6, 2023 Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 I use a FLXS48 for most shows and run most shows from Master Playback which allows the desk to stay in Channel mode. If I make a change to side lights colour during a cue using channels control, I can save changes using Update > Master Playback or discard changes made by tapping Clear twice when I go onto the next Master Playback cue. If I am using my FLXS24, I use a laptop as external monitor so I can use the laptop to see the Faders screen for better viewing and control. I have a touch screen laptop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have made edits to intensities manually, they will be displayed in red in the Output window. These values will need to be cleared to allow your cues to output as recorded. You could enable "Programmer Time", so that double tapping CLEAR fades the fixtures to their cue values, instead of snapping them. See here for more information... https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/z-key/z-encoders Hope this helps. 1 Quote Edward Smith Product Specialist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
