Example

The following example will show you how to create two fixed position scenes within the Master
page, using the Demo Moving Head page and 3D Demo stage. Your first scene will have all light
beams pointed to the drum set, while the second to the music keyboard on the stage. Furthermore,
these scenes will be compressed together, allowing for easier organization and editing of the positions.

Creating the drums position
1 - Click on the "@Center" scene to open the light beams
2 - Select the X-Y button (previously known as TAKE) for the first fixture and move the red arrow until
the light beam is pointed at the drum set
3 - Repeat the procedure for the 3 remaining moving heads
4 - Click anywhere on the Master page to select it
5 - Create a new scene AS YOU SEE NOW
6 - Make sure all 4 X-Y buttons and the "@Center" scene are selected
7 - Rename the scene "Position Drums", then click OK

Creating the keyboard position
1 - Click on the "@Center" scene to open the light beams
2 - Select the X-Y button (previously known as TAKE) for the first fixture and move the red arrow until
the light beam is pointed at the music keyboard
3 - Repeat the procedure for the 3 remaining moving heads
4 - Click anywhere on the Master page to select it
5 - Create a new scene AS YOU SEE NOW
6 - Make sure all 4 X-Y buttons and the "@Center" scene are selected
7 - Rename the scene "Position Keyboard", then click OK

Now you have 2 scenes, Position Drums and Position Keyboard, each represented as a button inside
the Master page. The next step in this example is to compress both scenes together.

1. Page menu - Settings
2. Select COMPRESSION from the menu on the left
3. Click on the NEW button to create a new group
4. Name it POSITION
5. Change "Button type" to SCENE
6. Change "Compressionn type" to TAKE
7. Click OK
