"Release" function

The "sneak" command will do this for all the parameters.

 ex. ch105 sneak enter will sneak the whole light back to its cue values

hope this helps

Remember, you can also be specific about what you sneak.

    Channel 105 Color Sneak Ent

    Channel 105 Gobowheel Sneak Ent

Sneak will always send the selected channels to their background state. That means either where they are recorded at in the current cue or to their home values. With a clear command line you can also use Sneak Ent which will sneak all channels to their background state. This is essentially what Rel Rel was in Express/ion.

Dont forget that you can use sneak in conjunction with record targets as well. Channel 105 Color Palette 15 Sneak Ent. 

In this case, there are a couple more options to do what you want.

You can do a "selective store" to record the cue without channel 4: [-] [4] [Record] <Cue> [x] [Enter].  The next Go or GoTo command should bring the fixture back to its previous state.

You can also make the channel Null: [4] {Make Null} [Enter].  This will exclude the fixture from any subsequent record commands until you either enter the make null command again (a little like park) or issue a GoTo Q command.

Perhaps a new syntax for this might also be useful.

What if you could type [-4 UPDATE CUE XX ENTER]  Would this be useful to anyone else?  I'm thinking of some of the really useful selective recording.... As in set all your levels and then dynamically use [-CHANNEL] or [-GROUP] to select what you want to record where.  Then you could update a whole lot of active information into different cues with a couple command lines.  

Useful to anyone else?  I'd use it all the time. 

It might be useful.  You could always just update 4 into where you wanted that, then update from the first cue forward.  I little more thinking involved perhaps.  Can't you already do that by typing [select manual] [-][4][update]? 

Does sneak put it at the level it was at in live, or the level that it is at in Blind?  

 Thanks

This is legal syntax now.  Have you tried it?   Perhaps there is a problem, but selective storing can be both positive and negative values.

Thanks!

I love it when you think ahead of me.

No I haven't tried it yet.  I've been sadly sans-EOS for the past couple shows. 

Well, we do what we can!  Happily, we lifted this concept directly from Obsession!
