When I move an additional group to an available master as an inhibitor, some of the other inhibitors uninhibit their fixtures. It doesn't seem to be consistant.
Here it is in detail... Master 1 is GM M2 - inhibitor for group 2 M3 - Inhibitor for group 61 M3 - Inhibitor for group 6 M4 - Inhibitor for group 1
These four inhibitors are down on fader. With the faders up, I move group 3 to M5 and then move group 49 to M6. As soon as I pod down on M5, some of the other inhibitors return, even though the fader for those is still down. When I start to bring one of those faders up the inhibit part kicks back. It doesn't seem to ever be the same faders that uninhibit each time it happens.
When you are moving these inhibitors and cuelists around, are you moving them on top of something else already on that master or are you moving them to blank masters. I haven't had any success reproducing your problem so far. Also, are you using a template page in the show?
The second console is more than likely causing this issue. When working in a mutli-console environment we have to decide which console will have control over a fader since networked consoles are not able to dynamically change physical fader position based on client activity. We call this locking/unlocking faders. When a fader is locked on it has control of the intensity of a master. When it becomes unlocked/locked off (no control) you have to push the fader through the value that was set by the other console or perhaps to full or 0% depending on the circumstance. Faders often get unlocked when working a mult-console environment and I have a feeling this is what is happening when you are moving lists from one master to another. I am looking into this.
I am recently seeing that the inhibitive master unlocks everytime I update or merge into a cuelist should this be happening. Don't use them all of the time. Two consoles are networked. Faders inhibitted on one and still up in the other. Before the merge the one console is down and shows that. The other does show that it's fader is up but definately inhibited. After the merge or update the fader un-inhibits and have to reset the fader.
Scott and Joshua, can you please confirm whether or not you have seen this on a single console setup. I think I understand this issue on a multi-console setup but have not had any luck on a single console.
In a multi-console setup, when a cue is recorded on the server, the client's fader levels for all inhibitive submasters will lock on and take over control for the inhibitive submasters.
100% REPRO: Start a new show on the server with all faders @ 0% Log on client desk with all fader @ 0% as well On server console patch 1 trackspot and 10 desk channels On server console Generate Auto-palettes On server console move group 13 (all trackspots) to master 10 On server console move fader on master 10 to full On server console record desk channel 1 @ Full on master 10 Notice how the inhibitive submaster on master 10 goes to 0%
Also seems to occur when you do cue open or merge data into a cue in a mutli-console setup with this repro.
