Includes "soft takeover".

notes on this issue (may actually be 'feature requests''?):

is it possible to recall presets for individual lasers or banks of lasers?

in other words, let's say you have a Preset 1 which is all BLUE/OVALS/ZOOMING IN & OUT. However, you want to keep all the lasers by the DJ in their current Preset 2 state GREEN/HORIZONTAL LINES/ROTATING and set all other lasers to Preset 1

in this example it would be useful to select which banks to "recall" or "load" Preset 1

optionally, STORING presets could be individually assignable but IMHO that's less useful than laser-or-bank specific preset RECALL

Good timing, I'm on this now (because I should be doing other things :-))

Here's my plan - devilish but fun.

A preset includes some subset of the lasers - possibly all of them.
And it includes some subset of the parameters - possibly all of them.

Two ways to create a preset:

  1. take a snapshot of everything.
    • Press loop button.
  2. subset of lasers and parameters:
    • Press record.
    • Press buttons (one after each other) indicating which lasers you want.
    • Press record.
    • Press (same) buttons indicating which parameters you want to store.
    • Press record.

This means you can have multiple presets on at one time if they don't refer to the same instrument/parameters - or if they do, the latest numbered one takes precedence.

Each new preset gets put "at the end". There will clearly need to be some way to reorganize and copy them but :-) that'll be another issue.

Consider a little DMX reading before you program this- google " DMX LTP vs HTP"

That was exactly what I thought it was going to be from the initials!

I'll probably have a switch for this feature then...
