Midi Control

What MIDI controller are you using? This also might be able to be fixed in the button settings for the switches your using. But let me know the MIDI controller and we will go from there.
Sincerely,

I am using a UMI3, by Logidy. www.Logidy.com

Savages, I did this the simple way. I created a scene with all the faders down at 0%. All channels are off, so all lights should be blacked out and at home.

I would say try what Iguana suggested.
Sincerely,

Yeah, I tried that. Any channel linked to a switch that is on, will not shut off though. How do you blackout multiple switches, without double clicking?

I've been playing with Compu Show, so what I say may not apply perfectly.

First, I'm in agreement with what Iguana says Set a new scene with zero values. But, I would make a minor adjustmnt to make the blackout a bit nicer: set all DIMMING channels and shutter channels to ZERO. Make sure this scene is on your master page. Then assign your MIDI trigger to it as a note on and that should do it.

I must be doing something wrong. I cannot get the switches to blackout. I created a new scene in the Master page. I turned off all the channels in the new scene, and set all the faders to 0. All of my pages are attached to the master page. Yet when I activate the newly created "blackout scene" any channel linked to a switch that is active stays on.
Can anyone help me? I didn't think creating a blackout scene would be so difficult.

for the switches that are staying on, click on it, then shift right click, select settings, go to "Switch" section in the button section at the bottom on the left of the window. Play around with some of those settings. See pic below.

Sincerely,

Thank you so much for your help. I think I figured out something that will work.
