2. Press the <MODE SELECT / REC SPEED> button until the green indicator LED for 1-
24 A lights up.
3. Compose the first step (Step 000) for the scene by moving the faders to the desired
positions.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the desired number of steps have been programmed, up to
Step 999 for one scene. After pressing <RECORD / SHIFT>, the display will read
Step _ _ _ (the current scene number).
6. Select the page (Scene Master) in which to save the scene, by pressing the
<PAGE / REC CLR> button until the LED indicates the desired page.
7. Press and hold <RECORD / SHIFT>, and tap a flash button (<13 / 37>–<24 / 48>) to
save the scene to that fader for playback.
8. Continue programming, or exit Record.
Once a scene is recorded and saved, it can be recalled and played back using the fader to
which it was assigned. To select a scene for playback, follow the instructions below:

Chase◄►Scene lights up.
2. If necessary, use the <PAGE / REC CLR> button to select the page to which the

4. Set the SPEED and FADE faders to the desired positions. (See
more information.)
5. Bring the fader for the scene you wish to play back up to the desired output level.
Adjust the output level of the scene by moving the scene's fader.
6. Adjust the total output of all scenes with the MASTER fader B.
