@Footer FTW! Thank you! I ran tests on the face panel, spacebar, cue load, and cue faders with no errors. It was a different active User (though I don’t understand why that should kill playback function by default). Once I switched back to User 1, all was good. Thanks all!

Help! I’m running a 12yo ETC Element on EOS Family V3.0.1 and somehow the Go button and Stop/Back button are not working. I can’t find anything in the manual or settings that would affect this. Please help!

I’m having trouble with one of our Radiance Hazers. It won’t pull fluid into the thermal assembly. Things I’ve checked are: 1. I replaced the air pump. 2. The air pump is receiving its appropriate 120V at the circuit board. 3. DMX, manual, and remote all work to trigger the fan, so it’s not a...

Found the power supply a month later. A student had put it in the bottom of a bin of Edison cables. Thanks, everyone!

After our last strike our M-Audio M-Track Eight sound card lost its power adapter and I am having the darndest time trying to find a replacement. 19v 2.37a DC center-positive barrel connector (IDK the ID and OD measurements). The manual and the device show nothing beyond 19v 2.37a. M-Audio’s...

Yep, it was the UV channel. Thank goodness for ML Controls and Color Palettes. Thanks.

No change. As far as I can tell they are all identically profiled.

My SIXPAR 200s don’t seem to be responding correctly to color values. When I pick a deep red, one fixture is correct but all the others look magenta. Similar for cyan and blue. They are profiled correctly and the same (6Ch) and patched correctly in the Ion (SIXPAR 200) but only one appears to...

A friend is lighting a show outdoors and wants to use a pair of Solaframe 1000s (only IP20 rated). It’s rainy season here. Does anyone have any safety solutions for protecting these sweet new movers from the elements for a few weeks? I don’t know if they’re going to be top mounted or underhung...

I’m setting up guidelines for returning to operations during this fall (despite COVID numbers). With the training of operators and limited budget for disposable nitrile gloves, I’d like to know if there’s a way to temporarily lock the console keys of ETC Ion and Element consoles so we can wipe...

Correction: it’s got 4 GHz RAM. After trying these options, among others, deleting the cue and rewriting it fixed the problem. Still stutters with a radius above 35, but got it close enough to look good. Probably a glitch. Thanks all.

Yes, there are multiple file types (mp3s, pngs, mp4s) but even when running only that cue it happens. Yeah, I could build it in After Effects, but I’d prefer to have the ability to tweak the timing on the fly.

Mac Pro 2018, 2GHz RAM, about 100 GB open storage space, only running QLab when in show mode. Even when it’s the only file and effect running, it stutters in time with the effect. The greater the radius, the greater the stutter. The png itself is a long vertical file and the lungs are at the...

Hey, folks, I wonder if any of you have an idea on resolving a particular QLab 4 issue I’m having. The look I’m going for is to make the lungs png I have inhale and exhale in a continuous loop. I’ve built the loop group (say that five times fast). The closest video effect I could find in QLab...
