Change the fixture type
You can change the fixture type of your already patched fixtures. The console will do it's very best to replace the
programmed values. If you change the fixture type on a fixture you have already programmed, then the console will
keep as much of the data as possible. It'll try to convert the data to the nearest value. E.g. if you have programmed
some LED wash lights and then replace them with something that only have a color wheel, then the console will try
to select the nearest matching color on the wheel. This is not a fool proof system. So it's a good idea to program
using presets. That makes it easier to correct the programming after the fixture type change.
