To all my fellow lighting technicians, designers, and enthusiasts!
I am designing a show, and all is going well until it is time to program the board (an ETC Express). I start setting cues and the board will only record cue 1, and none others. I try about 10 million times to re-record, restart, and reset the cues but the board keeps recording cue 1, and then keeps all the levels recorded in cue 1 into cue 2 and cue 3. At this point I thought to myself that maybe the board may be set in "tracking mode" so I search around to try and turn the tracking mode off but it still records the cues with all the levels in cue one and layers other levels. At this point I try to set a blackout, and even that doesn't work. Manually setting the chanel levels does not work either. At this point I have no idea what I should do, and to make things even better I have a rental package with moving lights and gobo rotators arriving next week that I also have the pleasure of programming into the board. Anyone have any ideas to help me understand a way to overcome this obstacle? Any help is most appreciated.
Thanks!
