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!
stagedirection - We can actually do a clever trick that will probably accomplish what you want.
As long as you don't need individual control of each circuit, and just want a global "houselight fader" we can do that in patch.
It is possible to patch multiple dimmers to a single channel in patch, you can only do this by using the Add Device Wizard.

You'll have to do them one at a time this way but it works. 
As you will be patching 7 circuits to a single channel, you can then just add a Channel Fader to your page for Channel 1 and it will control them all as a "group".
Hope this helps.
And you can see that on the channel page all 4 Channel 1's will come up with that single fader.

Thanks Chris!! I tried it but it gives me "Channel is already in use". What did I miss : )
You can not do it from the patch screen page. It had to be done from the "ADD Device" wizard one at a time.
Make it look like this screen shot where you would have already patched channel 1 once. You need to go into the patch wizard and change the channel to 1 or the same channel you are trying to duplicate, and then whatever the extra dmx values are.
