Thanx Archie - Yeah I wish I had a ML - but I only got a 24/48. However all is not lost - some redirection and some moding subs and i think i will be ok. Thank you for your input and all your typing :¬) Cheers

Thanx keith... something to chew on. Perhaps i will change the direction rather than the execution!.... 🗽🌩🎄🪪❗️❗️ i have the power!! Ha ha ha However I like the snap on subs idea. Thanx 😀

Christmas is coming and as per usual I am starting to panic with all the extraneous performances. Here is what i want One Cue that will snap fade one light and slow fade all the others. Is it possible to do these multi-fades on one cue? Thanx and Cool Yule p

Thanx for that - i would really like to try this sometime - I am going to try to convince the show designer that we should group some of the lights and share some channels. Cheers Kevin and kind regards.

thanx - interesting reply. in the end i bought another 2nd hand one for approx £250 - thinking that a repair would cost £100+ anyway. So now i have a backup that just about works. Perhaps i should buy a bull frog too - i love those older desks (I dont have moving lights) Thanx matey

Can I connect two Jester 48's to each other and get 96 channel desk. If so does anyone know how or can you point me to a link to research it please. I have a Christmas Concert coming up very very soon and I need a few more channels of poss. Thanx so much. Kind regards. P.J

Please can anybody tell me the contact details of where I can get our Church's Zero88 Jester48 serviced Cheshire in the United Kingdom. Thank you The Pre-set Setup Mode is not working for some channels only but working for every thing else and every mode. (P.S. Sorry if this has been asked before but the Search facility here did not bring up anything useful)

Hoorahhhh! - at long last :¬) Nice to see you all again

ok thanks

Can you tell me please. Can a Sirius48 be turned into a 96 channel desk by using all the Section B sliders? Thank you

Hi Alex, Here is the manual to help you http://zero88.com/manuals/7340300_jestermanual_3_4.pdf However... there are three modes of operation for this desk:- `Program`, `Run` and `Preset`. `Program` is used when you program the desk (with certain faders for certain lights). `Run` is for running the show - here you can test all the programs that you have entered. HOWEVER `Preset` is used to show all the lights attached to all the faders `Preset` is the mode that you need to use so you can see which light is attached to which fader. To help you, each operational mode (Program, Run and Preset) appear in slightly different colours on the screen. (If you have an attached monitor) ((Very useful if you do not have one)) `Program` has a background title of Red `Run` has a background title of Green and `Preset` is Orange. To switch over from `program` and `run` mode you press the `mode` button. To switch to `preset` mode you press the mode button for a couple of seconds. (If I remember rightly) So, the first thing you need to do is to go into `preset` mode and test all the faders. If everything works ok you will see each of your 42 lights dim and fade with your 48 faders. (I am telling you this from memory - so i am sorry if i have got this slightly wrong) (This will prove to you that all your lights work and which faders are for which lights) If this doesn't happen then you need to check your hardware (cabling, dimmer packs etc) If this does happen you now need to read the manual and learn how to program the desk. I hope this is basic enough for you to understand. If I have got anything wrong I am sorry (and I don't need flaming from anyone else - I am trying to help this guy) Best of luck Kind regards (Please let us know how you get on)

I agree, Monospaced fonts are ideal for this situation. There are a few different monospaced fonts that could work. Perhaps one with no fancy topping and tailling of the letters. Maybe something like Andale Mono - this is very popular. or maybe Letter Gothic Kind Regards

Hi I think this is a question for John and the Zero88 team but... Has anyone else besides me ever wanted a different font that is displayed on the screen we can attach to our zero88 desks? I have used the frog desks and I am currently using a Jester. The font that is displayed is similar to Times Roman, and it would be really good (especially for us lot whose eyesight is not that great) to have a more modular font with no fancy pieces around the letter. The Ubuntu common font is a good all-rounder, or perhaps Arial or something similar (or even a few choices). ...any ideas anyone? Thanx pj

Hi again - I have now had chance to soak up what you have said. Mmmm interesting - yes I have messed around with arduinos (and rasp-pi's and now nodemcu's) and love doing that. I think the point about setting up a dmx controller onto the wired switch is a good one. I have several wireless dmx receivers and have used them a lot and they are really good and helpful (to us lighting folk) and I think that would be the better option. Thanx Derek Kind Regards pj

Hi, Thanx for your input. (More later)
