sd3 & operator pro?

The SD3 uses MIDI continuous controller commands to call scenes. The page and scene number are encoded in the message. The operator pro probably uses notes to call scenes.

Is there a way to set up a master dimmer for pars, movers, etc if I bought a small midi with faders to go with it? At this point I'm having a hard time finding a way to have a master dimmer set up for each type of light.

....master dimmers that are always accessible that is.

There is no MIDI function to do what you are asking for. You can put up to 8 pars on a conventional dimmer fader but the DMX addresses have to be consecutive like 20-27. To put a group of movers on a dimmer fader you can try making a scene or preset with just the dimmer channels included, no other channels. Assign the scene or preset to a playback that's in HTP mode. The fader will control the dimmer for any movers in the preset or scene. Otherwise the Grand Master and the Flex master are the only dimming masters that override everything else.

Can I not isolate a certain channel for a light onto a midi? Or can I only call scenes and presets from the midi?

Hi New Earth, give me a call or send me an e-mail with your contact info. to see if I can figure out what you are trying to do? I think SD3 can do it without a midi device.

I have a problem with my OPERATOR PRO 2 in 1 by elation. A occasion began to stop responding slowly and now I do not respond at all when it comes to moving lights section while the section dimmers respond well let me know if it would be a hardware problem or firmware???
