Fixture not in Master scenes

danielgMember

We use the Master page to make scenes in which control a number of stage fixtures simultaneously (color scheme changes per song + gobo changes).
However, when I set my fixtures how I want them and create a scene in the master page it disregards my gobo fixture and does not save it's location or settings at all. It's as if the 4 gobo fixtures are invisible to the Master page.
Any ideas how I can include them in my Master scenes?

Hi Daniel. you need to make sure that when you use switches from the fixtures pages that the page your are using is linked to the master page. In the picture below you will see the "moving head" page is not linked to the master page while the Platinum spot 5R PRO is.

Also the other thing to check for is to make sure the switches are properly being imported into the master scene. In the picture below you will see two check boxes for the As you see now section.

You need to make sure that the "As you see now" is selected and the the Include INIT is not checked and the "include the activated scenes and switches" is checked like the picture above.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,

Ok tried that and this is what I got: an error that said "Master page cannot insclue repeated sets of DMX addresses. Please change the under PAGE SETTINGS or remove the other overlapping page from Master.
As far as we know we don't have any overlapping fixtures. It's just two gobo's and nothing else is using those same channels.
