1.Set you up with a free visualiser, allowing you to perfect your programming skills

What would this free visualiser option be? I would really like to do some programming but I don't have access to my console at the moment. I have also watched some of your recent training sessions on the Zero88 YouTube channel, which were really helpful and I would like to apply some of things that I've learned to my own workflow.

I noticed that you were using the Capture software in your session, but as one license for that costs around 400€ and I can't afford that, I would like to know what this free option you were mentioning would look like.

Hello,

For our training sessions, we use a free version of Capture, that can be downloaded from our website below...

http://support.zero88.com/1004254221

If you don’t have a console, you can practice with the visualisation software by linking Phantom ZerOS to Capture. For more information see below...

Hope this helps, if you have any questions please let me know.

Thank you so much for your quick reply (Seriously. You are lightning fast when it comes to these answers!)
I have one more follow-up question regarding Phantom ZerOS:

If you want to go to the cue stack window of a playback that is not the Master Playback on the Solution Console, how would you do that? On the actual console I would hold down the memories button and then tap on the Playback's Go button. In Phantom ZerOS, I can't hold down a button and press another one. Is there a shortcut for that?

[Edward Z88]

Hello,

To hold down a button in Phantom ZerOS, right click on a button in the Front Panel window. It will then remain “held”, allowing you to click another button. Make sure you then right click the button again to release it. 

Hope this helps,

Edward

This looks useful but the links are broken. 😞

Can you see if the Capture files on this page work:

https://www.vari-lite.com/global/products/zeros-software

I can’t remember if it’s a custom version of Capture used or if it’s a standard Capture download with a demo Capture project and Zero88 showfile. I’ve asked this before (a few years ago - but I bought Capture in 2019).

This link in the manual still works:

https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/networking/connecting-to-capture

See this bit of the page. I was able to download a zip file from that link:

This is the link URL:

and the ZerOS showfile to go with it:

@Phil Mckerracher hope this helps!

Those links work at least. I'll give it a try. Thanks very much!
