Ghost in the Machine

Brent,

Can you see the value change to 255 reflected in the Blind Cues?  If so, have you tried putting the correct value in as 'hard data' in that cue specifically, instead of tracking it through?

Brent

Great minds think alike... Did that prior to last nights show and it seemed to fix the problem (for now).  Also saved the show as a different file and did a deep clear.

All went well last night.  Hopefully it will continue to behave.  I'm still bewildered how the value keeps changing itself in blind though.  It is suppose to be a tracked value, yet it keeps magically inserting a move instruction to 255.  I get worried when machines start thinking they're the lighting deisgner - I'm sure it's not suppose to be like that :)

Thanks for the advice!

Cheers

Brent... has this problem resurfaced?  Can you email me that show file, along with an indication of  the cues/channels in question?   You should not have to place a hard value on these parameters to keep them where you need them.  i have an idea of what might be happening, though.  Can you send it to anne.valentino@etcconnect.com?

Thanks much!

Hi Anne

Just got your post.  I have left the hard value in place and the problem has not resurfaced.  Access to the internet has been a bit scarce for the last week or so.  I'll get the show file and relevent info together and send it through to you sometime this week.

 Cheers

Outstanding.  Look forward to getting it.  Very curious behavior.

Thanks so much!
