All off button

Is there a button that will turn all the lights off at once? I have some LED lights with a single dimmer and 2 4 channel dimmer packs but when I use a group it only controls one of the channels on the dimmer pack. How in the editor am I able to do this live? I dont want a scene setup cause we aren't using scenes. I just need to turn all the lights off and back on at current levels is this possible? Thanks

I don't really understand all of your post. But if you make a scene with all the dimmer channels active but turned down this acts as a "black out" scene without effecting any of the positions/colours etc that are already there.

Does this answer your question?

I don't want to make a new scene if possible. We are running the lights live thru the editor and just want to turn them all off for a few minutes then back on at their current levels.

Make sure your lights don't go in to auto mode when you do this though!

It looks like things would be much easier, using application "Live".
