  1. Ok. Good to know. From time to time reading manuals seems to be a good idea πŸ€” I will try over the weekend and give feedback again Thanks and best regards Sven
  2. Well you are right: I really did it like I was used to πŸ˜• You really believe this might be the root cause?
  3. Hi Edward I was already able to test your suggestion. Unfortunately it didn't work at all. Still, when I press "Automatically create Effect palettes" only the [No Effect] button gets created. I tried the installation 2 times and even did a fresh download and a deep formatting of the stick. No change at all. I then tried to create a FX palette by using Phantom. Phantom was able to create a palette. But after transferring the showfile to the desk non of those FX buttons were usable (all grey). Any further Ideas? I also wrote an email to support including my showfile because I'm really desperate at the moment 😞 Thank you and best regards Sven
  4. Hi Edward, thank you for your hint. I will test this over the weekend and will give feedback if it worked. Best regards Sven
  5. Hi all I'm having a huge issue with the FX palette on our ORB XF running ZerOS 7.9.5: After updating the console to 7.9.5 many FX of our show are not working anymore. Many of them are even "grey" instead of "blue" now, so that I can't even select them (for instance a circle for a moving head or color FX for our RGB(W) fixtures). I then thought: "OK, lets get rid of the old stuff and build it up new from scratch". But with that it got even worth: I deleted all FX on the palette and pressed the "automatic create..." button. But then only very view FX were created, they got spread all over the palette and even them do not work! Does anybody have a similar experience? What could i do wrong? Is there a solution or a workaround? BTW: Even on the Phantom the automatic creation is not working Thanks in advance Best regards Sven
  6. Cool hint! Thanks!! 😊
  7. Hi Edward, thanks for the quick reply. That wasn't exactly what I was hoping for but somehow what I expected 😌 Maybe this would be worth a user story in your backlog. At least from my perspective exactly all those MIDI show creations (especially with capture in place) would totally make sense to be able to do them in an office instead off "on front of the console". One more question regarding MIDI and the MTC section in the linked article: "...Any cue across any playback can be assigned a Time Code stamp, meaning that when this clock time is received, this cue will be triggered....": On reverse closure that means if I want to use MTC for more then one song I have to somehow deal with an offset in the MTC, meaning I can't start the timecode for all songs at 0:00:00:00, right? Thanks and best regards Sven
  8. Hi all, I'm at the moment trying my first steps with MIDI and ZerOS. No I'm wondering: Is there a way to use MIDI on Phantom (currently 7.9.5)? For instance with loopMIDI (https://www.tobias-erichsen.de/software/loopmidi.html) and reaper (https://www.reaper.fm/)? With that I could prepare my show at home without the need to sit in front of the console ;-) Thanks and best regards Sven
  9. Hi again, sorry for the late feedback: We were able to start the console in Test-Mode and saw a perfect STL signal (almost only kicks as EQed by Sound console). After that we again started the console as normal and retried our tests: I don't know what we did different this time, but everything is working perfect and as expected now! So thanks for all the help and hints! Best regards Sven
  10. Thanks a lot. I will Test this tomorrow and give you Feedback best regatds Sven
  11. By the way: My sound colleague mentioned, that he physically switched the "L" and "R" parallel by using a coupling resistance. (see attached circuit diagram) He now thinks that this might cause an issue, if you are doing the same inside the desk, because this might cause a phase shift of 180Β° which would result in a level of 0. Can you confirm or deny that you really use "L/R" in the desk or if you parallelize the signals as well - then we would need to remove our coupling resistance. I hope this makes sens to you, since I only translating here. I'm no soundguy as you might know πŸ˜‰ Beside this he would like to know, which level would be needed on the input to trigger the chase. Thanks and best regards Sven
  12. Hi Edward, that is exactly what we did: Enabling sound-to-light by holding setup and tapping the chase's button. Unfortunately without any effect 😞 Our Sound signal is EQ'ed by the sound desk to only give us bass. What confuses me as well is that even if sound-to-light is enabled, you still need to either "use global BPM" or set a specific fixed BPM to the chase. What do you mean with "Test mode"? Is it an option somewhere in the setup or do you mean a beta version of an upcoming release? Thanks and best regards Sven
  13. Hi Zero-Heroes, I'd like to ask a question regarding-sound-to light for chasers. I yesterday tried to use sound-to-light on an ORB XF the very first time, but it seamed to not have any impact to the speed of the chaser. How do I have to set it up? Should there be a different behavior by enabling or disabling "Use Global BPM", since this seems to be independent from enabling sound-to-light? (at the end BPM was the only thing impacting the chaser speed) Is there any "input visualization" or need for adjustment for the sound level? Thanks in advance and best regards Sven
  14. No Advent Calenda this year? 😒
  15. Hi, I already thought off that this might be caused by Apple 😞 But thanks for the hint with the "hide UI". I will test this πŸ˜‰ Thanks and best regards Sven
  16. Hi Zero Team, Today I did my first test with the new Apple Watch feature and I love it :-) But there seems to be one issue: If the Phone gets locked (either by timeout or because I want to put it in my Pocket), the Watch app can’t do a RemDim or Highlight anymore. I can scroll through my channels, but not interact with them. After the Phone gets unlocked again, everything is working again. Is this common and known behavior or is there something I can do against it? Because I would not love to have my iPhone unlocked laying around in the venue πŸ˜‰ My Setup: - Apple Watch Gen. 2 - iPhone Xs - ORB XF Thanks and best regards Sven
  17. Hi Zero-heros a year has passed. Is there still hope? Anything new? best Regards Sven
  18. That helped a lot. Tranks for that! Best regards Sven
  19. Hi Edward, thanks for this information! Actually I checked my installed App Versions and I am a bit confused now: Regarding Appstore I have installed v3.3 But regarding the β€žAboutβ€œ Section within the Apps the version is v3.1.10.0 Could you please confirm, that the v3.3 Apps have this wrong verion number in their About screen? Thanks and best regards Sven
  20. Hi there, anything new regarding the App update? Almost a month after iOS 12 release now and still not able to update :-( Thanks and best regards Sven
  21. Hi Edward, thanks for your answer. Even if "which are due to be released in the next month or so." is not a very professional Answer. A bit more precise or a bit more priority on your side for this release would be helpful, since this prevents your customers from updating their devices :-( Best regards Sven
  22. Hi, anyone allready tried iOS 12 with zero- Apps? Regards sven
  23. Hi there, iOS 12 is announced to be public available by tomorrow. Will the Zero88 Apps be working with it or do we need to wait for an App Update? Best regards Sven
  24. Good to hear. Thanks for the update! So I will look for an interim solution until release πŸ˜‰ Any suggestions from the community? Best regards Sven
  25. Anyome? Anything?
