You can set a home preset in settings and then record a home preset and any parameter values you store in it will override the fixtures library home value.
HSB is hue/saturation/brightness. It is one of the ways to control color. Virtual HSB in setup turns on and off the console calculating HSB values for patched fixtures.
The Hue, Saturation, Brightness made a lot more sense. Thank you. Still can't quite grasp the preset stuff. I know you can turn it on and off and obviously its putting a default value some where but not a lot more.
Home is the default set of values for when a fixture is not being commanded by something (ie cue or sub).
So when you press Goto Cue Out the home values are what the fixture takes, typically on an RGB fixture that 100% on R,G and B so when you turn on intensiity it comes out white. Or a moving light its where it resets its position back to.
You can also explicitly command the fixture to go home, by selecting it and pressing home.
The values that it normal goes to when it goes home are set in the profile lib, (so as I said on an RGB typically 100%). But you might want to set things up so that you dont home to those values or you might want all your moving heads to point somewhere tidy when sent home. So you can record a normal preset on the desk positioning them, setting colour etc. And then you can tell the desk which preset to use for things that are home.
The manual describes that setting as
{Home Preset}
Allows you to specify a preset that will be used as the home level for all non-intensity parameters in the preset, instead of the fixture library defaults. This preset will be applied for all “Go to Cue Out” and home commands. Intensity values in the preset will be ignored. Channels not included in the assigned home preset will continue to home to their library defaults.
