ION: Making some simple Cyc fades.

Hello, I'm new to the ION console and would like some help to do the following.

I have a groundrow and flown row each consisting of 6 4 cell cyc battens. It can be assumed that they only use 8 different dimmer channels (1 per colour)

I would like to create some very slow fading sky colours for Dawn, Day, Dusk and Night skys.

As the show progresses most of the time I would like the cyc to continue it's fade, irrespective of the rest of the lighting state. Then on certain cues I would like the cyc to rapidly progress to the next state I.e. Dawn into Daytime.

Any useful info appreciated.

    I personally think that if you are referring to a cued show in which all actions occur in the same order everytime, a single cue list is simplest and easiest.  Just make sure that your cyc channels are not in the cues in between the cyc changes.

    There are numerous valid methods of doing things on the ion/eos.  Many people are inclined toward multiple cue lists out of preference.  The only time that a second cue list would be necessary is when then all of your cues are not expected to be in the same order each time. 

    2 cents, and welcome to the forum,  B
