Multi-Function Faders (MFFs)
FLX S24 consoles are equipped with 24 Multi-Function Faders. These can quickly and easily be switched between
their two functions (“Channels” and “Playbacks”) by using the Fader Funct. button.
Channels
When set to “Channels”, the faders directly control each light (or “fixture”) in the rig. Each fixture, no matter what it is,
will have a single “Channel Number”, and so will take up a single channel fader. FLX S24 has two pages of channel
faders, and can therefore control a maximum of 48 fixtures. The Page button can be used to switch the faders
between fixtures (see below).
Playbacks (or cues, stacks, submasters or chases)
Lighting “states” (or “scenes”) can be pre-recorded, ready to be recalled later. They are called “cues”, and are
recorded onto “playbacks”. Each playback can store a single cue, or multiple cues. FLX S24 consoles support 48
playbacks, plus the “Master Playback”. Traditionally, playbacks with a single cue have often been referred to as
“submasters” whereas playbacks with multiple cues have often been referred to as “cue stacks”. We simply call them
all playbacks.
Page
On FLX S24, the page button allows you to switch between faders 1 – 24 and faders 25 – 48. Switching between
“Channels” and “Playbacks” will automatically change the page to the page you had previously selected when in that
function.
Master Playback
For many shows, especially theatrical, a single playback is often used with a long list of pre-recorded cues. For these
situations, an additional “Master Playback” is provided.
Function keys
Function keys either perform functions themselves (like View ), or change the functionality of other buttons when
pressed at the same time (like Setup and Shift ).
Command Keys
Command keys are used during programming to access commands such as Record , Update and Delete .
Encoder wheels
Four encoder wheels are provided and used for accurate control of various settings. The settings currently being
controlled by the four encoders are displayed in the four boxes along the bottom of the touch screen, just above the
encoders. The button in the middle of each encoder is occasionally used to perform an additional, but related, task.
