Freeze and Stop Effect on Submasters

[Freeze]

Note: [Freeze] is used below. Consoles without this hardkey use the following key combinations:

  • [Fader Control] {Freeze} - Ion Classic
  • {Fader Control} {Freeze} - Element 2 / Element Classic

Freeze can also be accessed via a connected keyboard with CONTROL+ALT+F.

[Freeze] can be used to halt all effect activity on any active submaster. To activate a freeze for only a specific submaster, press [Freeze] & [Load].

There are two ways to remove the freeze command:

  • Press [Freeze] & [Load] again for the specific faders to unfreeze the activity.
  • Press [Assert] & [Load] or [Go] or [Stop/Back] for the specific faders to resume the activity.

[Stop Effect]

Note: [Stop Effect] is used below. Consoles without this hardkey use the following key combinations:

  • [Shift] & [Effect] - Apex 5 / 10 / 20 / FP
  • [Fader Control] {Stop Effect} - Ion Classic
  • {Fader Control} {Stop Effect} - Element 2 / Element Classic

StopEffect can also be accessed via a connected keyboard with CONTROL+ALT+E and SHIFT+ALT+E.

[Stop Effect] can be used to stop all effects from operating on any or all faders, or it may be used with the control keypad to stop a specific effect.

To stop all effects on a fader, press [Stop Effect] & [Load] of the associated fader. To stop a specific effect regardless of the fader it is operating on, press [Effect] [2] [Stop Effect] [Enter].

When an effect is stopped, all impact of the effect is removed and the stage output is as though the effect had never been activated.
