GM / Changing Pages

IPC running H3 v2.3.1(1932)

I'm not sure if this is working by design, but it seems like a bug to me.

Page 1 and page 2 have a cuelist on fader 1. Page 3 has no cuelist loaded on fader 1. I have the page setting to "remember fader values". With fader 1 down (output coming from other faders), I can toggle between page 1 and 2 as expected with it remembering appropriate values. When I toggle to page 3 the rig blacks out because it now has the Grand Master on fader 1 and that value is at zero. This happens only after turning on the console before giving the GM explicit value - i.e. I can move fader 1 up on page 3, toggle to page 2 and move fader 1 down, toggle back to page 3 and no blackout (as expected).

Hope that makes sense.

It seems when the console starts the GM is assumed to be at full, but that assumed value is not necessarily remembered when changing pages.

    [quote=tedcook]So is the conventional wisdom, then, to run through all your pages prior to a show so that everything has hard fader values to remember?

    I step through all my pages anyway before a show for other reasons....to be honest I almost never use the "leave in background" or "remember fader values" options so maybe others who use this more have an opinion on this.

    I really only use these when doing something that requires a bunch of Inhibitive Masters (like a shoot), and then I typically only use 2 pages at a time....1 for inhibitors and another for whatever else...movers, LEDs, DLs, media-servers, etc.
