MagicQ User Manual 168 Version 1.4.9.0
In “Normal” mode, the intensities of the selected heads are reduced except for the one (or ones in
Odd/Even mode) that are being controlled. Highlighting of the controlled head(s) makes programming of
positions much easier.
In "Advanced (highlight/lowlight)” mode, all the attributes of the heads that are being controlled are set to
the highlight values from the Personality. If Single mode or Odd/Even mode is in operation then only the
subset of the selected heads is highlighted – the rest are lowlighted.
“Advanced Highlight Only” is the same as above, but no lowlighting occurs.
“Advanced no reset” is the same as “Advanced (highlight/lowlight)” but is not cleared when you press
CLEAR. Press Highlight again to reset it.
19.7.7 Fan Mode
This setting determines the fan mode. The options are “Normal” or “No Toggle”. When set to “Normal”
fan mode can be entered and exited by pressing the FAN button. With “No toggle” fan mode is only
entered when the FAN button is held down.
19.7.8 Select Multiple Groups
This setting enables multiple to be selected without pressing SHIFT. To deselect all groups press the
DESELECT ALL soft button in the Group Window.
The options are “No”, “Multiple in one Go” and “Multiple always”.
Whens set to “No” only one Group can be selected at one time – selecting a second group releases the first
group. Pressing SHIFT and multiple groups allows multiple groups to be selected.
“Multiple in one Go” allows multiple groups to be selected until a head attribute is changed – then it starts
with a new selection of groups.
19.7.9 Recording to Palettes
The options are “Only selected heads” and “All heads in Programmer”. By default only the selected heads are
stored into Palettes when a Palette is recorded.
19.7.10 Record merge does not override times
By default when the Programmer is merged into a Cue using Record Merge, the times in the Cue are
overwritten with the times in the Programmer. This setting enables this to be changed so that the times in
the Cure are not overwritten.
19.7.11 Update Clears Programmer
By default the Programmer is not cleared when the Update button is pressed.
