Show Scene
You can recall a scène in the Chase/Scenes mode. Be sure that:
The Chase/Scenes mode is activated (by using the <MODUS SELECT/REC SPEED> button)
The {Master B} fader is at its lowest position
MIX Chase is activated; select this by using the <PARK> button, just on top of the MASTER B
fader in Chase/Scenes mode. The [MIX CHASE] led is situated above the FADE fader and must
be lit.
The Black-out function is not activated.
All the PRESET faders (A & B) are set at their lowest position.
Move the {PRESET B 1} fader to its highest position. The stored scene will appear on the green Leds (and
on your projectors).
By setting several Preset B faders at the same time on a position that is higher than 0, you can create a
combined scene. You can modify the intensity of the scene by using the Master B fader.
You can quickly set the scenes at 100% by using the Preset B flash buttons. Repeat the procedure to store
scenes in page 2. Be sure that the Preset B faders 1 to 3 of page 2 contain also scenes (make them different
from the other scenes). Check also these scenes.
Page to page
Now you have scenes for the preset B faders 1 to 6 from page 1 and the preset B faders 1 to 3 from page 2.
The preset faders 1 to 3 can now show 2 different scenes, depending of the selected page.
Execute the next position:
Move all the {Preset B} faders to the lowest position.
Activate page 1 by using the <PAGINA/REC CLEAR> button
Move {Preset B 1} fader 1 to the highest position. The stored scene is shown.
Activate Page 2 by using the <PAGINA/REC CLEAR> button
The same scene is still shown.
Move the {Preset B 1} fader to the lowest position.
Move the {Preset B 1} fader to the highest position. The scene stored in preset B 1 of page 2 is
shown.
The content of the Preset B fader has changed. This happened when the fader was in its lowest
position.
Modify a Scene
If you need to have another scene, you can:
Compose a completely new scene and store it
Adapt a scene by modifying the intensity of certain channels
Follow the normal procedure to store a scene. when you have stored the working memory in the Preset B
fader by pressing <RECORD/SHIFT> + <PRESET B x>, the old scene will be replaced by the new scene.
If only a few channels of a scene need to be adapted, it is easier to recall the scène and to adapt it than to
create a complete new scene. The CMX24 has a special edit mode that allows you to modify the channels of
a scene.
First of all, you need to place the Preset B fader with the stored scene in edit mode:
Be sure that program mode is activated.
Be sure that Chase/Scenes mode is activated.
Bring all the Preset A faders to their lowest position
Select a page by using the <PAGINA/RECCLEAR> button
Place the Preset B fader in edit mode:
Press and hold the <EDIT/ALL REV> button

Press and release the <PRESET B x> button. X has to be replaced by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
o
8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 depending of the preset B fader that you want to edit

Store a Chase
A chase is a succession of scenes that are shown on a certain rhythm.
The controller makes no difference between scenes and chases. A scene is in fact a chase with only 1step.
So you will notice that the method of storing a chase is almost identical to the method of storing a scene.
