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:

    1.As a rule when i record my first cue on a cue list ( Hog II) i usually use record state to record all values into the first cue.Is this process the same in Hog III.

    There's another trick to giving a hard command at the beginning of a list. Try selecting the fixtures and use touch. This will load all perimeters into the programmer so when you record or update the cue those fixtures will be "blocked". This is most use full for cues that you know your going to duplicate or move about within the list. I'll make a group for every fixture & desk channel that I consistently want to block. Usually exclude key light specials, smoke machines, etc. so those are left out. This can bone you though if your going to edit at the beginning of the list and expect the edit to track forward.
