    Absolute values are important for a pan/tilt effect because all the fixtures will move between the same positions, is it right? If I use relative, the fixtures will move acording to the initial position that they were. Right?

  • @creativetom01
    @creativetom01 Před 2 měsíci

    For some reason when I store a cue as a new cue for example: both the colour, position and effect seem to copy over. Also when I add an effect it doesn't always run the effects in that cue it just goes to blackout or white.
