4.3.3.1 The "Editor" screen
In the upper part of "Editor" you will find a number of modules which you can use. The "EasyTime"
module is the most important one and is the best tool to control your channels in step time. It is
displayed first and should be mastered first for convenience. The other racks make it possible for
example to program chasers, to create a "follow spot" or to use "MIDI" functions for instance.
The lower part of the "Editor" displayed as a horizontal-scrolling window, you will find all the
channels accessible on the active page, (i.e. the page which the button comes from). These
channels are those allocated (and assigned) in the patch of this page…
Therefore, it is no use trying to find "Spot 575" channels when editing a scene from page "Spot 250".
In extreme cases, it can be said that a page can store from one channel up to a maximum 2048!
Each channel is therefore represented as a fader whose position adjusts the DMX value. Above the
fader, there are three indicators. For instance, the largest area will directly show you the active gobo
or the color being used in the shape of a mini-icon.
