Creating and Using Effects 351
Adjust the attributes as described in Effect Status Display (on page337). Adjustments are cue over-
rides and don’t impact the core effect. Changes made to effects in the effect status display impact
only that instance of the effect. The changes will then need to be recorded or updated.
To edit other properties of the effect in live, press {Edit} and the effects editor will open (See Effects
Editor (on page333). Changes made in the editor will impact the effect itself and all instances in
which the effect is used.
Stop an Effect
Pressing [Stop Effect] [Enter] will stop all running effects.
To stop a specific effect, press: [Stop Effect] [x] [Enter] or [Effect] [x] [At] [Enter].
You may also stop effects on specific channels by [selecting channels] [Effect] [Enter].
You may also remove an effect instruction by [selecting channels] [Effect] [At] [Enter]. This command
will work in live or blind. You can also stop the whole effect by pressing [Effect] [x] [At] [Enter].
On Element 2, you will need to press [Live] {FaderControl}to see {Stop Effect}.
Assigning a Stop Effect Command
A [Stop Effect] command can be assigned to a list of channels in a cue without an effect tracking into
it, or to a list of channels in a submaster. See Freeze and StopEffect on Submasters (on page373) for
more information. On Element 2, you will need to press [Live] {FaderControl}to see {Stop Effect}.
<channel> [1] [Stop Effect] [Enter] - will create a stop effect instruction for all selected para-
meters, if there isn't an effect running on any of the parameters.
<channel> [1] [Effect] [Enter] - will only stop the currently running effect.
Query and Group Effect
You can use [Query] [Effect] [n], [Query] [Effect], and [Group] [Effect] [n] to select the channels cur-
rently running in the selected effect.
Using [Query] will select the channels in numeric order. [Group] will select the channels in the order
that they were originally selected.
[Query] [Effect] will select all channels currently running effects.
On Element 2, {Query} is a softkey.
For Example:
[3][1] [+] [2][6] [+] [3][0][+] [2][7][+] [2][9][+] [2][8] [Effect] [1] [Enter]
Using [Query] [Effect] [1] will select the channels currently running effect 1. Using [Next],
the channels will be selected in numeric order starting with channel 26.
Using [Group] [Effect] [1] will select the channels currently running effect 1. However, press-
ing [Next], the channels will be selected in the order they were originally selected. In this
example, channel 31 would be first, then channel 26.
