Recalling Scenes (Default Solo Mode) - Elation SHOW DESIGNER 1 User Manual

CROSSFADE TIME
When you record a scene you must assign a crossfade time to that scene. This sets
the amount of time it will take to transition when it is played back. You can set the
fade time from 0 to 25 seconds. Set to 0 if you want the scene to take effect
instantly. During the fade, some fixture channels will transition to their new settings
gradually while others will snap to their new positions either at the start of the fade or
at the end. Channels that control beam movement and dimmer levels are
typically set to fade gradually while channels that control color or beam
appearance are set to snap at the beginning or end of the fade depending on
personal preference. This behavior is defined in the fixture library for each fixture
channel. You can override the default settings for any of your fixture channels by
using the "Modify Fixture" menu. Refer to the Menu chapter under "Modify Fixture
Crossfade Mode" for more info.
If a chase is part of the scene it will start right away regardless of the fade time.
Presets included in the scene will either fade or snap depending on the fade mode
of the preset's channels.

RECALLING SCENES (Default Solo Mode)

To call a scene, turn on the scene mode LED by pressing the "SCENE" switch, then
select the desired page and scene number. Only one scene can be selected at a
time in the default (solo) mode. All channels that are not included in the scene will
fade to 0. Pressing the scene number switch of the currently lit scene will turn off
the scene essentially giving you a blackout.
