Clone function

I have been using the copy to command.  Once you specify the target you should have a soft key for "entire show" that will copy everything from one channel to another.  Then you just have to give it an address and you are ready to go!

I appreciate a reply of  Anne and  Andrew.

Although I understand the method, I think that it can be necessary to do simply like "GrandMA" console.

I would like to prove that EOS excels more than other consoles.

It is expected that the refined function will be carried in the future.

Thank you!

Now I'm extremely confused.

It is *fundamentally* impossible to 'add' fixtures to a show and not manually program them. No console does this, and no console ever will.
(Until we have true AI with a sense of wonder and creativity, and then we're all in trouble!)

You can use the Copy commands to copy information around as you require, from the fixtures you want into the new fixtures, throughout as much of the show as you need.

This is better than a direct Clone would be, because it lets you decide what, and how much to copy from other fixtures, and to copy from different fixtures at different points in the show.

I'm not sure what you mean by "simply like "grandma" console"?  

The contents currently written on user's manual of GrandMA are described below.

2.11.3 Clone Fixture - Copying Fixture data globally (cloning)

􀁏 Press Clone button (green background) to open the Clone Fixture Data menu.

You can clone (copy) all data of one or more fixtures globally. In this, all Preset, Group, Cue and Effect data are

cloned from the first fixture/s (From Fixtures...) to the target fixture/s (...To Fixtures). If you select the same

number of fixtures on each side, the data of the first will be transferred to the first, of the second to the second,

etc.

Select the fixture/s that you want to clone (Fixture Sheet). If you want to clone several fixtures, you have to

observe the sequence in which you select them. Pressing the left Take Selection button will display the fixtures

in the left table (From Fixtures...).

Select the fixture/s, to which you want to clone the data (Fixture Sheet). If you want to clone several fixtures,

you have to observe the sequence in which you select them. Pressing the left Take Selection button will display

the fixtures in the right table (... To Fixtures).

By pressing the >>>! Clone!<<< button, you can clone all data.

Attention: All target fixture data created sofar will be overwritten/deleted.

Ick. That's horrible.

The Eos "Copy" commands are much more flexible, as you choose what to copy.

Why would you ever just 'add' a pile of fixtures and not think about what to do with them?

Because in some flash and trash rigs all you have is a whole lot of fixtures doing exactly the same thing at the same time?

That's right

It seems that Richard does not understand.

Since many procedures are needed by the method of copying, it is not realistic.

If it is a clone, even if there is equipments change, it is enough only with correcting only a focus for rigs.
