3. PRESETS

This chapter describes individual steps used to set up, recall
and fade in/out presets (pre-determined lighting situations). Even
though your LC2412 can execute complex functions, its controls
are easy to master, provided you invest some time to familiarize
yourself with the way they work. To familiarize you with the
control elements and their functions step by step, let us begin
with setting up presets (preset = the total collection of all fader
positions of the A PRESET section at one particular time). Let’s
start with 12 channels first.
All statements referring to channels 1 - 12 apply also to
channels 13 - 24 (upper mode).

the LC2412 from a neutral setting, and can observe the results
of the changes you implement directly. Use the POWER switch

3.2 Expanding to 24 preset channels
All operations applicable to channels 1-12 can be executed on
channels 13 - 24, once you switch into upper mode.
1. Press the UPPER switch
The control LED indicates that the LC2412 is now in upper
mode, that is, that the faders of the A PRESET section now
control channels 13 - 24. The faders from the B MEMORY
section affect channels 13 - 24 while in preset mode.
2. Set up your preset by moving the faders of the A PRESET
section into the desired position.
In case you had already executed setups to channels 13 -
24, you have to first put the faders into the previously
selected position before being able to again align these
channels.
