The Lighting Controller

When switching between the preset buttons on the controller itself in stand alone mode there is a slight problem. The moving heads and mighty scans that i have are scrolling through the colors before landing on the right color for that preset. So when I have the lights on preset 1 and switch to preset 2 or any other one, the lights go through all of the colors before they get to the right one. Is there a way to have them just switch directly right color immediately?


thanks

Transition mode in first step must be "snap" (and not "fade").

How do I change transition mode?

Some lights have a setting of, black out whilst changing colour. This could be your problem, you are not closing the shutter while the light is getting to its correct colour so you see the color wheel moving to its position.

Please read the manual do find out about fading.

do you know how I would adjust that setting?? I'm using american dj mighty scans and Max- moving heads.

Youre fixtures don't have this function, the best thing you can do is for every scene you make have a step beforehand setting the gobo and position before on the second step you open the shutter. Ensure that this scene is a 'non loop' scene in Live (right click the scene and choose the non-loop option) then it should work for you.
