By type palette/channel

We have a show file that was recorded with by type beam/colour palettes with the intention of being able to load them up or merge with another show file on gigs without having to redo the palettes. At the moment they are recorded by type ch 301, how can we add new by type channels to that palette without getting discrete values come up?? The fixture is still the same.

Cheers

  • Hi Nick!

     

    Open your Color pallette, select the new channel and click "by type" at the softkeys. The values should by tracked from the old channel.
    To remove the old channel which now is discrete, you can select it and do the "at enter" command, or you click "more SK" and "Cleanup"

     

    A lttle tip:

    We made our by type palettes from channels we never use. For this, we patched our master play in the range from Channel 4900 and above for each type of fixture we use a channel without adressing it and made our palettes from them. So we have no problem, if a by type channel is not used in the actual show

     

    Servus, Reinhard
