Master control of programmers in network

If this is already available, please do let me know...it's not something I have ever found out how to achieve.

Can it be made possible that you can clear out a programmer on a different console on the network?

Using OSC control recently, I had a few occasions where my production electrician has forgotten to clear the programmer of the Net 2 console, to which his remote was connected. I was programming on the Net 1 console and occasionally needed to clear what he had accidentally left up, which was affecting the look onstage. It would be nice to be able to open the programmer of the net 2 console on the net 1 console and have the ability to view it and also clear it out.

Obviously having separate programmers across the network is a hugely powerful feature but being able to take control of other programmers on the network would take it to the next level.

  • Sorry for the late response. It looks like you found the solution alright. I had that same issue in my first version too. Yes, the second Go was not triggering the Macro. What I did is my Dummy Cue 1 had the Comment Macro to trigger the Clear Macro, then I also added a Cue 2, but I just added a follow time to Cue 1 so that after the first Go, it would sit in Cue 1 and on the next Go to Cue 2 would just follow back to 1. I didn't think I needed any kind of Release command since there really isn't anything playing. Sounds like you got it working though. I've already shared this trick with a few others who are loving it.
