Output Window and Blind Mode on a S48

[StefanB]

Hello everybody,

I`m working with a Leapfrog 48 and - since 2 weeks - also with a FLX S48.

 

2 questions:

1, The outputwindow of the Leap Frog shows the "Source" button.

It´s not on the display of the FLX, but really useful to find open channels during a running show.

 

2, Is there a "blind mode" on the flx to program playbacks?

 

Great Stuff, the FLX S48!

Rock on

Stefan

Hi Stefan,

Glad you like the FLX S!

Source, Preview and Blind mode are all removed from the FLX S to keep it simple. These features are on all the other ZerOS consoles though.

Hope that helps, any queries let me know. 

Kind regards

Edward

Hi Edward,

I had a little theater show with several playbacks and cuelists on the FLX S and it took some time to find open channels.  

My opinion is that this "Source-Display" in the Output window is nothing to keep a console simple, but really helps if you have to edit a show or find open channels.

No Preview and blind ... hm ... have you ever programmed playbacks during a running show? That is not simple ... ;-)

Anyway, nice console ...

 

Just another question:

In the System Settings of the S48 I find the option "Show Record&Update Window".

Why is this missing on the Leap Frog48/Solution?

The Record/Update window is always on top of the Touchscreens Palettes and Groups. This is boring, especially if you want to save different palettes, you always habe to change the MFK´s on the desk. My touchscreen on the Leap Frog shows during programming 4 windows (Groups, Color, Position and Beams) and it you be nice to program all the palettes on the touchscreen without this overlay screen.

 

;-) Stefan

Preview & Blind modes are more professional features, and so for a small simplistic console, these features had to go.
