Cues recorded with absolute values direct from the fixture(s) will need
to be re-recorded, preferably using palettes.
Links from the palettes to groups, cues, chases and cue lists will also be
preserved, so the show can be easily recreated by updating your
palettes as normal.
Fixture exchange also gives you a powerful way to re-use an existing
show with new lights, so you can give yourself a programming head
start when faced with a new fixture.
It is always advisable to save your show before performing major
changes such as fixture exchange. Should you change your mind, you
will easily be able to return to your show to its previous state.
