Live Blind Mode

I do quite a lot of programming lights on the fly for festivals, concerts, dances, and the like. HOG is already laid out quite well for this sort of thing, but there is a feature that I thought up one night that would add an even greater level of flexibility for situations where one has very little (if any) lead time to program cues.

Imagine a mode that, if enabled, allows you to make changes in the programmer and effects engine without affecting the current output, until you trigger the changes you have made to go.

Obviously, you can achieve this currently by recording what you have running as a cue, opening the cue and changing parameters there with the current blind system. But if you were able to cut out the cue system entirely, this in combination with the existing palate system and effects engine would make an extremely powerful tool for those of us who make the majority of our living busking!

Also, a locking clear key to prevent the show from stopping accidentally!! :p

  • Okay James, I can understand that better. What you have is stuff in the programmer already and then what to add some other looks, but not have it show until you unblind. I would say that not possible, but interested if anyone else thinks its a goer for a new feature.

    Your not going to like me at all, I am the opposite, I rarely go into the programmer when I do a dance or festival event, understand the lack of programming time, same here, I just had to make sometime to get a base show together that can be cloned to whatever the event rigs ends up being. There are a few ways to skin a cat here, but certainly understand what your after.
