Step 4 – Name and colour channels
Having chosen a Template show as your starting point, and set your operating preferences, you may wish
to prepare for your show by naming your inputs, mixes and DCAs, and applying colour to help identify
them by type or to highlight important channels. You can name channels with up to 5 characters entered
from an on-screen touch keyboard. You can colour each or ranges of channels with one of 6 colours or
no colour. This colour is displayed as the backlight to each strip LCD.
There are two ways to name and colour channels:
