Releasing Page overlay

[Chris at the Stables]

I put Lamp 1 up in page 1, say on submaster 10.

I switch to page 2.

Quite correctly the yellow light flashes on submaster 10 to remind me I have something set on page 1.

But how can I maintain the lamp on page 1 as ON, and switch on lamp 2 on page 2 on the same submaster, if you understand.

In practice I had a profile on page 1 and a MAC move on the same submaster on page 2. How do I leave the profile on on P1 and activate the Mac on P2. The manual says something like … Release page overlay. I tried all combinations of the flash button, Flash on , of, solo etc. But none worked.

A work around is clearly not to use the same submaster on different pages, but this is very limiting.

Thanks

Hi Chris,

 

When changing page, you have to release the sub from the first page before you are able to use the same sub on page two.

Thanks but not sure what you mean by "release"? If you mean "return to zero", that is what I am trying to avoid, as I loose the first page state. I want to maintain the state from page 1 and bring up the state on page 2.

Hi Chris,

 

Unfortunately that's the only way to do this on the Fat Frog range. Sometimes you are lucky that you can program them in such a way that you won't ever need the two submasters that 'overlap' at the same time.
