  1. As @kgallen says, you will only get green if green is a component of the incoming or outgoing colour. Green is a component of white so, if you have a default of white and fade from nothing set by you to magenta you will see it. The default default is the Home colour which is, pretty much always, white (given what Home is for). I suspect the reason for this is the lack of an obvious and consistent, alternative. IMHO it should be black and I always change it to that. You can change it, it does work. Select all your colour mixing fixtures, set them all to R=G=B=0, and (on FLX) press Record (not Update), press Home and select Default on the screen. Mixing between colours works fine in a cue stack, it's only as good as you are when done manually. Either way you can get unwanted intermediate colours. Yellow to Magenta will go via a mucky White for example when the incoming Blue and Red matches the outgoing Green. and Red. In a cue stack you could fade Yellow to Red with a follow on cue going from Red to Magenta but that would be inconvenient to do manually. If you want total control of the change from one colour to another then RGB mixing on faders is probably the way to go. Really thinking about it... Fader controlling intensity and colour R=255 G=B=0, default colour R=G=B=255, trigger level 5%, fixtures not currently controlled by anything else. Fader @4% (below trigger level) gives I=10, R=10, G=B=10 (dim White) Fader @10% gives I=25, R=25, G & B are more complicated, they are reduced by 10% because you are 10% through a change from 255 to 0 but they are at 10% of that so G=B=23 that's 255 minus 10% all @10%. Sort of a dim, pale red? Fader @50% I=127, R=127, G=B=(255-(255x50%))x50%=127 (brighter pale Red) Fader @90% I=230, R=230, G=B=(255-(255x90%))=23 (bright, almost Red) Fader @100% I=255, R=255, G=B=0 With a starting colour of black, G=B=0 throughout. With a Magenta fader a.ready @100% B as above, G=0 throughout. Edit: On reflection, I'm not sure I've got the sums right above. Nevertheless the outcome is similar.

  2. As far as I’m aware you can select the fixture and then edit with the on-console editor. https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/patching/add-fixtures/edit-export
