City Theatrical Color Blasts not holding color data

So I'm running into a bit of a strange problem with color blasts. I run hog3pc for basic wedding and corporate jobs. I've noticed that they don't always hold true to the colors I program them into cues with.

I will usually design a few stacks of static staggered colors, the other day I pulled up a blue/magenta/purple look and the set that I had programmed as magenta came up teal. Anybody else run into any issues like this with Color Blasts? Any ideas at all would be greatly appreciated it's becoming an issue.

The only thing I could think of is this could be a missing addressing of the fixture. Which fixture profile in the library are you using for control?

When you're having the problem, bring up the output window and look at the "source" display for each of your blasts. Is the color data coming from where you expect? Also look at the actual output values to see if the color matches. You may have color data tracking through from an unexpected place, or high priority lists overriding some/all of your parameters.

I usually just put them in under Generic-Generic RGB in the V4 Fixture library. None of the options under City Theatrical are for Color Blasts.
