Editing Palettes Live

N o t e :
R e r e c o r d
Rerecording follows the conventions illustrated in the [Record] and [Record Only] sections
detailed earlier in this chapter. The only exception is that a confirmation is required to record over
an existing palette.
For Example:
Color palette 4 has already been recorded. To rerecord color palette 4, adjust the
parameter values as needed (you may also adjust the parameters of previously excluded
channels in order to add them to palette) then rerecord the palette.

U p d a t e
Live changes can be updated to both active and inactive palettes. When updating a parameter in an
active palette, that parameter will no longer be absolute data, but will now be in the updated palette
on stage.
The following illustrates how to update color palette 2 when no cues are active and you have
recalled channels within that palette.
• <channel list> [Update] [Color Palette] [2] [Enter] - any manual changes for channels
originally in the palette are updated in color palette 2.
• [1] [Update] [Color Palette] [2] [Enter] - adds channel 1's manual data to color palette 2.
• [-] [3] [Update] {Color Palette 2} [Enter] - withholds manual changes for channel 3 from the
update to Color Palette 2 using the direct selects.
If a channel or parameter does not have data in the palette being updated, it will not be added to
that palette unless the user specifically requests it by specifying the channel.

Storing and Using Palettes
If a palette is already recorded, [Record] replaces all existing data. [Record Only]
is a selective store, therefore it adds data. Recording over a previously existing
palette requires a confirmation, if confirmations are enabled in the setup menu.
It is also possible to [Update] to add manual changes to the record target.
[Record] [Color Palette] [4] [Enter] [Enter]
