I can't turn the lights off!!

My friend is the technical director at the local high school and she has been having some troubles with the Express 48/96 so she asked me to take a look.  I haven't been able to figure out what the problem is.

There are about a dozen channels which have values that we cannot get to turn off.   They are pale yellow and become dark yellow when we move the corresponding channel slider.  I have cleared the A/B and C/D faders and released everything.  Also, the values can be recorded into cues.  I don't know how to get these lights off!

This is the board that I learned on, so I'm ashamed that I have to ask...  I'm hoping that it's a hardware problem, or maybe currupted software (we're running 3.1)  I hope it's not that I've spent the last 5 months learning the Congo Jr. 

I'd appreciate any advice that anyone can give

Thanks

  • If you can see the levels on the stage display and record them into cues, then they are being generated from the console, but not by park.  Yellow usually indicates submasters, so be sure that all of the slider handles are down. If that doesn't help, type [About] [Channel] [n] [Enter] and see where the console thinks that the channel 'n' levels are coming from.  That will help to determine what to do to get rid of them.  (For example, if they are stuck in the background, then [Background][Overrides][Enter][Enter] will take them out.)
