pallette release

Is it possible to release a pallette override? For example, if i were running a chase on some fixtures in blue color, i wish to override them in red. This works, but i wish to release the red palette and i want the colors to return to their blue position according to the programming, without stopping and restarting the chase.

if one million people say a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing.

I'm afraid the answer to your question is no because outputting a palette is not simply a temporary override.

 

All fixture colour, beamshape and position parameers are processed using the LTP (latest takes precedence) method.

 

The desk does not store a history of what source (playback X, submaster, SX button, control wheel, home button, palette) causes any fixture LTP parameter to change it's output value, and therefore cannot simply undo the last action.

 

However, what I suggest is you program several palettes with different colours (red, blue, green, yellow etc..) then use the 'blue' palette to return the selected fixtures to their previous colour.
