will learn about programming from default. You will see that all transparent channels in the programmer will
get values from the default layer.
When the console is booting, the system default (all 0) is output. After that the default layer takes over.
3.4.5 Background scene
In the run mode chapter you will learn how to playback cues. When running BG (background) scenes
inside cues, you will discover that the scenes do not replace one another. New channels are added to the
current look and only existing ones are replaced.

3.5 Sequence transparency across cues
When you are putting sequences behind cue buttons you have to keep in mind that Xciter has sequence
transparency. When there is no sequence in the next cue to take over the sequence in the current cue, the
sequence from the current cue will keep running. However, you can still deactivate it. In the previous
section you have already learned that background scenes cumulate looks as you launch them.
