Hiya All. I was delighted to upgrade the leapfrog to the latest software to enable me to be able to run the desk in non tracking mode so that I can program the desk in the old fashioned way ie what you see is what you get in cues and on submasters and then I was dismayed to find that is not the case because having read the patching dimmers post I discover where my problem lies. It seems the desk still wants to guess at things most particularly with regard to moving fixtures. I DO want to be able to program attributes onto submasters and into cues with the dimmer at 0% especially when "busking" a show it is my method of working to set up a look before bringing the dimmer up rather than having things move and fade up at the same time when you bring a submaster up. So Zero yo still haven't given us real non tracking software where we make all the decisions about what we program please can you change this as it is so much easier to be in full control of what you are programming rather than having to work around the oddities of the way the desk behaves. Regards Tom

Thanks Peter thats great. Also thanks for the quick response I hope Zero are paying you well to still be working at that hour.

Hiya I just wondered if it was possible to restore a default patch for the first 96 channels on universe one to the 96 faders (on a leapfrog 96 obviously) without changing anything else on a show file and without having to do it individually?

Is it possible to still download v1.37 of the leapfrog 48/96 software. We want to reinstall this on the desk to remove the tracking function whilst programming.

Hiya all. I have to say that I find the tracking feature and the need to tag generic channels totally unneccessary because when you are programming you want to be able to tell the desk what you want in states and chases not have the desk assume it knows what you want and confuse the issue giving you all sorts of strange results you don't want. We are reprogramming usually every day because that is the nature of our venue and have struggled for four weeks with the upgrade before deciding it is just too much hard work having the desk "help" you and have reverted back to 10.4 without tracking to retain our sanity.
