Master lane and color palette changes
The master lane affects all fixture groups at once. Use it to set a base mood, e.g. a cool verse and a warm chorus, and add accents in the groups on top.
Step by step
- Tap “Master · whole show” on the right. The “Generator” tab shows the master tools.
- Put the playhead where something should change. It counts from the start of that bar.
- Change the palette: under “Color world from the playhead”, tap a palette. From here on, all clips using palette colors (1–6) change color, until the next palette change or the end.
- Base color: under “Base color for everything”, pick a color and a length, then “Set base color”.
- Base intensity: under “Base intensity for everything”, set the slider, then “Set base intensity”.
- Gobo: under “Gobo for all moving heads (attribute cue)”, pick gobo and rotation, then “Set gobo cue”.
- A message confirms from which bar the clip sits on the master lane.

- Opening Effect lanes and going back to the StudioIn Effect lanes you edit a show effect by effect on a timeline. You start in the Studio with a mood and then refine single spots in Effect lanes.Summary
- Look programmer: Static Looks like on a lighting consoleWhen you open a Static Look in Table, you get the look programmer: every fixture is a row, every channel a column – intensity, color, strobe, position, movement, gobo, prism, focus and everything else. Thru is hatched. On the right you set everything the selected fixtures can do – across all groups.Summary
- How Effect lanes are laid outEffect lanes have four areas: the preview at the top left, groups and tools on the right, and the timeline below. You save in the header at the top. For songs the lanes sit right in the Song Studio at the Everything level.Summary
- Editing lanes and clipsThe timeline shows one or more layers (lanes) per fixture group. Clips sit on them: colored bars that play an effect for a certain time.Summary
- Editing one group or single fixturesWith many lanes the timeline fills up quickly. Group focus shows just one fixture group. With “Single fixtures” every fixture in the group gets its own timeline.Summary
