Hog III Novice

Hi All,
having been a Hog II user for some time i'm going to start my first run of show's on an IPC in hog III mode.
Most of you are way ahead of me so i'm looking for some help setting up a basic show.
I want the show i create to be something i can continue to use in festival situations over the summer so anything i start now will be the basis for my festival show later in the year.
Any tips or info regarding building pallettes,cuelists or patching would be of a big help.

Thanks in advance C :welcome:

    There's no need to record state for your first cue.

    There are 2 times when I can see this making a difference:

    1) When no playback is controlling a parameter it is set to its default value. If you were to change your default values in the Edit Fixtures window, this could change how a cuelist looks on stage if you had not blocked the first cue.

    2) When you have interactions between multiple tracking LTP cuelists playing back, the entire cuelist is asserted each time Go or Assert is pressed. If you had recorded state into the first cue, every parameter of every light would be asserted instead of just the parameters that you had changed while programming the list.
