Hi Jon I don't suppose you know if these have been implemented yet do you? Thanks Rob

Can you buy me an FLX then Thanks Jon - much appreciated. thanks for the info though.

I'll let you know how I get on then Presumably the main cues run as well as the chase?

Tried multiple USB sockets but no joy. I don't have a separate USB hub

Eek that sounds confusing! I'll give it a whirl! Wish me luck! Rob

That's helped loads! Thanks Jon! Rob

Hello Everyone! If I want to create a chase in the middle of my cue stack, do I create the chase in another playback and then somehow copy it into my main cue stack, or do I create it within the cue stack I want it in? Rob

Thanks Jon! I'm loving the desk - it's fantastic. Don't suppose there is a rough timescale for these additions to the OS? Is it months or years? Rob

Hello again! Final question on Move on Dark (I hope!), I have set the move on dark delay time to 1 second and the fade time to 5 seconds as I don't want any loud movement over quiet dialogue scenes. Occasionally, however, I need the delay time and fade time to be almost 0. Is it possible to edit the delay and fade times for individual cues rather than the entire stack? I've looked in the cue settings and can see options for "don't move effect, position etc" but can't see anything for the move on dark delay or fade times. Any help would be much appreciated! Rob

Excellent - Thanks!

Really! That's excellent! I've only done 1 song so far so I'll copy that into "point" cues and carry on from there. Thanks - you're a star!

Hi Kevin I've programmed the desk to jump to the cues rather than manually holding down "GO" and typing the cue number. I though that it 'looked ahead' so should see that the fixtures are needed at X location in cue 200.

I can't see any obvious branding on the touch screen monitor. Both are plugged in at different sides of the desk and the keyboard (Genius) works fine when plugged in either alone or with the monitor. I've tried recalibrating the touch screen monitor but it is completely unresponsive. The keyboard is just a basic keyboard. No additional buttons, ports or backlighting.

Hello! I'm currently working on a show and have the basics with ease. Due to time commitments and the rehearsal schedule, it's easier for me to leave the songs that require a bit more work until last, so I usually programme e show in chronilogical order and the have some songs towards the end of my cue list. Normally I tell my cues to jump to the songs later in the list, and then back again to continue the script. I'm finding that move on dark doesn't seem to be working when jumping cues. For example the script in cue 9 then jumps to a song that starts on cue 200 and finishes on cue 217 then jumps back to 10 to continue the scene. The move in dark does recognise the required position in cue 200 so when I press "GO" lots of movement and colour changing occurs which is not desired. It sounds an odd way of working, but I find it easier than leaving a few cues blank In case I don't leave enough for example. Any help appreciated.

Thanks guys. The lock code was just a personal niggle. The real issue is the keyboard and touchscreen not working together!

Hello All I've just hired an FLX and am loving it however when I plug a keyboard in the touch screen stops working? I've tried resetting the console etc but they simply won't both work. Any ideas? Also, I find it odd that to lock the console the code is required? Surely I should be able to lock the console simply by pressing "lock" and only need the code to unlock? Cheers Rob

Hi Jon How's the testing going? Any planned date for release? Rob

Many thanks Jon - email sent!

Jon - I've been asking for this for a while and it was worth the wait! Really well written and very informative. One question though - the mobile apps that are mentioned...I can't seem to find them in the app store? Am I being silly? Rob

Hi Jon Thanks for that. Stage Electrics are a tad expensive so I'll give Viking a go! Rob

Hi All I've got a show coming up early next year and am wanting to try an FLX to ensure its the right desk for me before I purchase. Does anyone know somewhere that can hire one for a reasonable price? I'm based in Bradford/Leeds. Thanks Rob

Hello I am having a problem with intensity on submasters. On submaster 1-1 I have all generic fixtures, when I pull the fader down the intensity drops relative to the position of the fader. On sub 1-2 I have some LED pars but when i pull the fader down the intensity does not drop, they remain at 100%! What am i doing wrong? Rob

Hi Jon I know you guys will be working very hard on the full manual, but do you have any indication of when it will be released? Rob

Thanks Jon! Much appreciated indeed! Rob

Hello Is there an easy way to offset an effect across multiple fixtures without having to manually select each one and then choose an offset? For example if I have 6 LEDs and want a rainbow effect, (i think) I have to manually select them one by one and vary the offset otherwise they all do the rainbow effect at the same time. Rob
