I have been working on the timing for a show recently. I am having a weird problem and am not sure how to fix it. I have about 20 cues that need to be timed exactly with a piece of music (non-changing, like a song). When I was setting this up the cues were timed exactly right. Now, when I run the entire...

Would it be possible to make the phone remote alter only the live state? I was doing some blind editing of cues, then went to tweak some focussing, taking the phone remote with me. Having forgotten to switch the console to live mode, it was a while before I realised why the phone remote wasn't operating...

The theatre director wants to block each scene during rehearsals. Basically, she blocks all of the players for the scene and calls for "lights". My job as the LD is to keep pace and try to remember each nuance as I pull and push faders. Fortunately no calls for moving lights or scrollers, but...

Edit: when bringing up or down a sub the intensity would freeze randomly and remain at say 67% while the fader would be at zero. The fader light would flash alerting the problem. This was happening on all 6 boards we use. I have downgraded to 1.9 and no problems. Just upgraded all 6 of our elements,...

I haven't been able to find this in any of the obvious and not-so-obvious places I've looked.. The Cue List display on the Element shows the times inside of a rectangle with rounded corners. If the up-fade and down-fade times are different, it displays each fade time inside it's own "box"...

Hi, Having used an Express console for many years, I have become accustommed to [About] [Enter], to detrmine the total number of cues in the show. I have recently switched to Element, and I have not been able to find the total number of cues. Is there a way to achive this? Thanks
