ok im having some trouble with my show designer. i just upgraded to some m....n mx-4s i saw many diffrent lights in there but no mx-4s i was wondering what to do about this problem. my other problem is im still new to the sd. i havent figured out how to change fade times. the dmx operator had the speed and fade time sliders those rocked i twish the sd had that does it work at all like that? and how does the crossfading versus snap to.
thanks everyone

yes you can blaze yes you can...

first to address the issue with the mx-4s being in thier already yes they are, hold on i will plug mine in now to show you exactly what to do...

ok ok im back press "menu"
the first thing that comes up is "press enter to choose fixtures"
so press enter now.
first thing you should see is "fixture 1" hit the right arrow key to get you to the lower level of the screen, first thing you should see is "no fixture" if not then dont worry. hit the data button so you can use the jog wheel, from the "no fixture" you should turn the wheel 112 times before you hit "M***** mx1 mx4". then set your fixtures up with this profile.

now to change fade and speed times while on the run, when your in a chase or a scene you can do this by hitting the fade button or the speed button. they are rite to the right of the jog wheel. once you hit those buttons you can change them quickly with the jog wheel.

hope this answers your questions, if not or if so let me know.
the show designer is a awesome controller for the mx4's and with the factory chases or "macros" it is so easy to program scenes with having to deal with a step by step do it yourself program.
remember if you dont see any of what i said above, then please download the new software ver 2.08 and throw it in your controller from your your pc.
also go to the elationlighting.com forum, thise is a show designer forum by it self and you might get quicker help through thier.

let me know how it goes.
