Storing Palettes with [Record]
The most common method to create palettes is to store them from Live. Palettes can be
numbered from 0.001 through 9999.999, and each can be given a label. [Record] will store the
relevant current parameter data for all channels with non-default data for the appropriate
palette type, as modified by the filter settings.
To select which palette type you want to record, you will need to have the ML Control screen
open. Press [ML Control]. See
Moving Light Controls (on page59)
. Beam and Focus palettes are
accessed from the ML Control display. Intensity palettes can be accessed from the ML Control
display or by pressing [Int Palette]. Color palettes can be accessed from the ML Control display
or by pressing the[Frame] key twice.
Example:
Assume you want to create a custom color using the color picker and store that data to
a custom color palette. First you must select channels.
[1] [Thru] [1] [1] [Enter]
Using the color picker, adjust the hue and saturation levels to the desired look. When
the color is selected, store the palette.
[Record] {Color Palette} [4] [Label] <FOH Blue> [Enter]
Notice that when you recorded the color palette, all of the color data for channels 1
through 11 is displayed in live with the reference “CP 4”. Because [Record] was used, it
stored all of the color parameters for those channels.
Note: [Record] will store the entire parameter category into a palette. [Record Only]
stores just the values you have adjusted manually to the target palette. See Storing
Palettes with [Record Only] (on the facing page).
When a palette is created, the channels and the parameters involved in the record action are
automatically set to the palette reference (“CP 4” in this instance). To view the absolute data
for those channels, press and hold the [Data] key.
The following methods can be used to store palettes using [Record]:
[Record] {Color Palette 1} - records all color parameter data to color palette 1 and shows it
as the first color palette direct select. See
Storing Palettes to Direct Selects (on the facing
page)
for more information.
[Record] {Focus Palette} [2] [Label] <name> [Enter] - records focus parameter data for all
channels not at their default state and adds a label to focus palette 2.
[Record] {Color Palette} [Next] [Enter] - records data to the next sequential color palette
number.
Selective Storing Palettes with [Record]
Palettes can also be created using selective storing, which allows you to specify only the
channels and or parameters that you want to store.
The following examples illustrate various methods of selectively storing palettes using [Record]:
[1] [Thru] [3] [Record] [Intensity Palette] [2] [Label] <name> [Enter] - records the intensity
data for selected channels 1 through 3 and adds a label to intensity palette 2.
[Group] [2] [Record] {Beam Palette} [Next] [Enter] - records the beam parameter data for
Group 2 to the next sequential beam palette number.
[-] [9] [Record] {Focus Palette} [5] [Enter] - stores the focus data to focus palette 5,
excluding the group or channels specified.
