4.2.1 Recalling a palette value
To recall a palette value, this is what you do:
1> Select the fixtures to be changed. Shared palettes can be set to
any fixture of the same type. Normal palettes will set individual
values to each fixture.
2> Press the grey preset Palette button you want to recall. The
palette will be set to the selected fixtures.
• You can make palettes fade over a time when you recall them, see
section 4.7.1 below.
• You can recall a palette by its number by typing
the number on the numeric keypad and selecting B
[Apply Palette] from the softkeys. The softkey
shows the legend of the palette which will be
applied. If you enter a palette number which does not exist, a
warning symbol appears on the [Apply Palette] button.
4.2.2 Palette pages
You can select different pages of palettes using the Pages of Fixtures
buttons.
You can also recall a palette from any page using its number by doing
the following:
1> Select some lights
2> Press the Palette button above the numeric keypad
3> Type in the number of the palette you want to recall.
4> Press Enter or A [Apply Palette]
4.2.3 Quick palettes with no fixtures selected
If you press a palette button when no fixtures are selected, the palette
will be set to all the fixtures the palette applies to. This is called a Quick
Palette. For example if you’ve got some colour palettes programmed for
your MAC 2000’s, pressing one of the palettes when no MAC 2000’s are
selected will set the colour to all the MAC 2000’s.
4.2.4 Setting palettes to fixtures in a playback
You can apply a palette to all fixtures in a particular playback. Hold
down the palette key and select the playback which the palette is to
apply to. You can only use this function with palettes which have been
assigned to a handle button.
