All on and flash buttons??

I think what your referring too is called a "panic" button. My dmx does not have this. You can simply program a scene and have all your lights on and name it all on or something to that effect.
As per your button at the bottom of every fader no my dmx does not have this. What you got to understand about software controller is they are nothing like hardware consoles. There is a trade off in functionality but the pay off is the features and effects engines on the software's. hope that makes sense and clears some stuff up.
Sincerely,

That's what I figured, but since there is so much that I DON'T know about MYDMX, I thought it was best to ask and make sure.

That's no problem at all. i just wanted to clarify up front right away. Please if you have any questions don't hesitate to post here or email me personally at jamesk at americandj DOT COM
Sincerely,

I have no doubt that the ease of programming with MyDMX is well worth the tradeoff.

Many thanks to you jingles for your quick response. I will be using MyDMX for a show on October 2nd in a large club (while I am playing keyboards). Should be interesting. The cool thing is that I hooked up 6 par LEDs, 4 moving heads, and 8 traditional pars on Sunday, set the DMX channels, started MyDMX and everything worked the first time. Now that's ease of use!

Glad to hear it.
Sincerely,

Glad you posted that phm. I was wondering the same thing.

Also, something I am not seeing is a master fader. Is that hidden anywhere by chance?

Thanks,
Brad

If by hidden you mean not a function of the software then ya sure. lol
I'm sorry I'm joking. No there is no master dimmer fader. Not unless you use a midi controller.
Sincerely,

hello, my first time posting.
you can use your keyboard keys as hot keys

in the setup view you can see the 512dmx channels grip. right above the grid on the right you can choose a different view that shows a list of the fixtures. open the fixture and assign it a hot key say "z" for example.
if you go through and put a "z" in every fixtures dimming slider channel than you can hold down the "z" on the keyboard and slide the mouse up and down to turn all lights on or off.

you could also make a "blackout" scene and then hit it to turn everything off and then create a "home" scene to come back to a neutral/medium starting place

Deaf Ear: Awesome tip! Thanks for sharing.
Sincerely,

Does the above only work when in the 'Setup' and 'Editor' screens, as I can't seem to get the mouse to move the sliders whilst holding the hot-key down in the 'User' screen?

Thanks in advance for the help.
