Chapter 18:
Presets
Presets are lighting console style cues set up within the Catalyst application. Presets are
available in Pro, DV and Express versions and can control all layers and every parameter
within Catalyst.
The Presets programming screens are located in the Library window. Select Library from
the Windows pull down Menu, and click on the Presets tab in the library window.
Preset Number
DMX values for parameters can be set in the layer panels of the Catalyst Control window,
in the Presets window, or as a snapshot from DMX. Crossfading and timing are set in the
Presets programming tab.
The media server can be programmed with up to 200 Presets, triggered in one of three
ways:
•
From a console as a single DMX channel
•
From the keyboard through Midi Show Control
•
From the GUI using a mouse or a suitable touchscreen.
