Recalling Scenes in Add Mode

I don't understand the question.

Sorry, let me try again... On page 11 of the SD2 manual it states:

"Note:
Currently you cannot use add mode to combine scenes and then record the combined scenes as a
new larger scene."

I was originally thinking I could create scenes then layer them (holding the Add button) to create new scenes but obviously now this is not the case. Is there another way that I could do this? I was able to quickly set up scenes using Fixture Groups and Presets to assign colors but now it looks like it will require much more programming to get the desired effect.

I had considered turning on "Add Mode" but over all for what I'm trying to accomplish it will not create the desired effect.

Does that make more sense? Utimately i'm looking for a way to quickly create scenes without having to touch every channel on every active fixture when creating a scene.

I'm thinking I may be either overthinking or making it harder than it is.

Any words of wisdom?

Thanks as always

Use presets instead. You can combine those into a scene. That's what they were intended for. Also, that way you can update many scenes by updating a single preset if something in your setup changes.

But if I have presets set for my colors (red, green blue etc) I wasn't able to save my fixture groups and color which was set for it as a scene. It says there is nothing there to record? Will I have to manually set the color for each active fixture instead of using my color presets?

Ooooops i mean "wasn't able to save my fixture groups and color which it was set for it as a PRESET.

You lost me there, not really sure what you are saying but read over the section on presets and I think those will do what you need. Presets can hold settings for many light fixtures but will only affect the ones that are selected when you add the preset to a scene.
