Echo Touch Programming Faders

In an Echo Touch video Shawn Fernandez (ETC) remarked that you can control all house lights or certain stage lights from the Echo Touch with a fader.  How do I go about this?  ex.  I have 7 circuits of house lights but would like a single fader to control ALL  7.  Or a fader that has theatrical lights for a "rehearsal" look.  I understand using a Preset with sACN but don't understand how to make a fader control more than 1 device.  Thanks in  advance!

  • Hi there!

    I apologize if I made that section a bit confusing and will make sure we clean that up in the future! 

    In the video I referenced that starting with version 3.2 you can divide house lights, work lights and stage lights on the EchoTouch. While this was possible before, 3.2 meant that you no longer needed a separate DMX Scene Controller. This means that these areas can be split into separate spaces and you can have presets that affect each of those spaces separately. In other words, I could have a preset that sets my house lights to 75% and a different preset that sets my stage lights to a "Talent Show" look and have those two controlled independently. 

    All that is to say that we don't support groups on faders, at least not yet. It is a high priority feature for us to add, but not something currently available.

    I hope that helps! Otherwise, feel free to send me an email if you need more help.
