Editing and Updating Groups in Live
Existing groups can be updated or re-recorded in Live. If you re-record an existing group, a con-
firmation is required (unless disabled in Setup). By re-recording a group, you replace the contents of
the group, you do not add to it. Updating a group does not require a confirmation and adds chan-
nels to the group, rather than replacing them.
Other editing or updating examples are:
[Group] [x] [Label] [Label] [Enter] - clears the label.
[Group] [x] [Label] [name] [Enter] - stores a new label.
[1] [Thru] [5] [Update] [Group] [n] [Enter] - adds channel 1-5 to existing Group n.
For record examples, please see Recording Groups Live (on page204).
Multicell Fixtures In Groups
There are multiple different ways to create groups using multicell fixtures.
Note: The following examples are created in the group list. Groups can also be recorded in
Live. See Recording Groups Live (on page204)
To create subgroups of the whole multicell fixtures:
[Group] [3] [1] [Enter] [5] [0] [0] [Thru] [5] [0] [3] [Enter]
To create a group with only the cells of the selected multicell fixtures:
[Group] [3] [2] [Enter] [5] [0] [0] [Thru] [5] [0] [3] [.] [Enter]
To create a group with only certain cells of multicell fixtures:
