  1. Ok, so for this production time I can live with the "cue only" setting. Next time I will go back to "tracking", as it seems to bring more advantages than I thought. Kevin, I will definitely try your tip with "1 THRU @ .", it seems kind of awkward right now but I will try it for sure. Thanks, Martin
  2. Hi all, to finally give some feedback, I ended up programming the effects from scratch because there was no remove option in the record menu. I guess this may be due to the fact that my desk is in "cue only" mode at the moment. I thought it would be easier for me to handle in a theatre environment, but now it seems it brings some limitations with it. The second thing I noticed is that I cannot run two effects in parallel. Whichever effect I start later will interrupt the effect started before and stop it. Is this another limitation of "cue only" mode or am I doing something wrong here? I am quite sure that I only tagged the parameters needed for the particular effect. Cheers, Martin
  3. Starting over from scratch would be my next option. But lets try what I can achieve tomrorrow.
  4. Thanks Kevin for the quick reply, Will try this tomorrow evening.
  5. Hi, I am happy to say that we are in-game again. We are having our first youth-theatre production since two years of corona pause. Said that, I am having some problems because I recorded an effect on a moving head, which is working fine. However, I recorded some other lights with it which shouldn't be there. Can anyone tell me how I can remove these lights from the effect which I stored on a faders cue? I can set the lamps to zero intensity, but I want to remove them completely from the fader to not interfere with other cues. Any hints would be appreciated. Thanks, Martin
  6. Hi Eric, I think at the moment it is not possible to do what you want to do in an easy way. That's why I voted for "Exclusive Playbacks (a playback not affected by GM, RemDim, Inhibits, other Playbacks, and not recorded into cues)" in this https://zero88.com/forum/topic/9266-what-would-you-like-to-see-in-zeros/ survey. Cheers, Martin
  7. Thanks Kevin again, I was in kind of a remote-support situation, which makes it even harder. I can feel the pain of you and the Zero88 people having to do this. Thank you all 😀 Martin
  8. Ok I got it. Thanks for bringing long forgotten things to my mind. Corona thank you 😍 You can bring up the cue stack of a fader by pressing <view> and the button under the fader. Thanks Kevin
  9. Kevin, you mean this? I placed it randomly on playback 7. There is only one cue at this fader.
  10. Either I can make the color fade with the fader movement or have a fade time of 3~5 seconds. But where can I adjust this?
  11. That was my first Idea. Where can I find fade times for faders? It's not the Go button, there it would be obvious.
  12. Sorry, quick and urgent question: How can I make a color to snap on a fader (fader only controls intensity, but color should be the same from the beginning)? I am sure I asked that question before but I don't remember the solution and I couldn't find any related topic. I am still on ZerOS 7.9.7, only for a small event I didn't yet want to upgrade and lose patch. Thanks for a quick reply, Martin
  13. Hi all, I just did some votes on the survey (it was only 5 or 6) and I don't want to put them into categories like Kevin did. One thing I would really like to have is "Exclusive Playbacks", to prevent me from house lights getting recorded into cues. At least this feature sounds like it could prevent that. And I think this would be one of the "not too hard to implement" ones. And even if I voted for the macOS version of Phantom, I would like to see a native Linux version which probably runs on any common Linux distribution like Ubuntu, Mint or whatever. Even more as it seems the newer versions of Phantom can not be run in WINE anymore. (See my post on it below) Cheers, Martin
  14. Hey Jon, thanks for your suggestion, but this would also really upset me and I would forget to hold Shift and make it even worse. My technique works well for me so far. Don't hover your finger over the Go button is a good tip 🙂 Martin
  15. Hi, sometimes I am nervous on the Go button too, especially in first night performances. My tip is to really press the button firmly and release after you are sure it has been pressed. It will not trigger more than one cue, if you fear that 🙂 Martin
