Shutter is a mechanical device in the lighting fixture that allows you to block the light
path. It is often used to lessen the intensity of the light output and to strobe.
Patching refers to the process of assigning fixtures a DMX channel.
Playbacks can be either scenes or chases that are directly called to execution by the
user. A playback can also be considered program memory that can be recalled during a
show.
