Hi,

I have an FLX S24. For a music gig, I’ve got certain fixtures set to a particular colour and saved to a playback. I’ve then got the same fixtures set to another colour on another playback.

When I introduce the 2nd playback, I get a sudden jump to the new colour. The intention is to be able to cross fade manually from one colour to the other without a visible colour jump.

ive watched Ed’s excellent Playback mixing video, and sort of understand why it’s jumping, but not sure how to avoid it. 
many suggestions? 
ta.

also a quickie…. How do I clear the desk of everything except the patching, to start a new show? I normally just continue with deleting playbacks and renaming the show, but I may have some settings which need restoring too.

This should be a helpful one to watch...

Setup > Clear Options > Clear All will clear all programming, but leave all of your settings and patch.

Setup > Clear Options > Reset Desk will clear the patch and most settings, but will leave any network protocols enabled and configured.

Often the best option is load the "Setup Only", of a show file where you know the settings are how you'd like them...
