The storage capacity of your maXim is noted in the specification table in the “Introduction” chapter.
The maXim is continually checking its memory and compacting it to give you the maximum storage
capacity. A Memory Expansion Module is available as an option. You can check the current
memory usage via the diagnostics. See the “UTILITIES” chapter for details.
6.1 MODE/PAGE FREEZE
A “MODE/PAGE FREEZE” feature prevents the contents of a live fader from being changed if its
level is above 5% when a mode or page is changed.
The current contents of any live fader is held until such time as that fader is faded down below 5%
when it will be automatically updated with its pending assignment for the new mode or page.
This prevents scenes, chases or channels “crashing in” on stage if their fader is contributing to the
output when a different mode or page is selected.
Whenever there is a pending scene, chase or channel change due to a 'Mode or Page freeze', the
“LED” indicator in the MODE RED BANK button will flash. This acts as a warning to you that the
contents of a fader on the Red or blue bank may change after it is faded down.
