Faders & Bump buttons
There are 24 (48) faders. They can be set to control intensities or memories and
sequences. These modes are set with the FADERS buttons.
or
Each fader has a Bump button below it. This button will light up when there is content, and
it will mimic the output of the content by varying its intensity. The button color will vary
depending on the type of content.

Bump Playback Modes
There are two Bump modes when a Bump button is pressed, Pile-on and Solo. Both use
the level of the BUMPS fader. The SOLO button toggles between these modes. See “Bump
Master” on page 56.
N o t e :
For intensity faders to control light output live, three things are required:
- The Master Fader is over zero, and normally set to full (the topmost position).
- The BLACKOUT button is off (not lit)
- The NEXT button is off (not lit).
Master & Black Out function
The Master fader proportionally limits all intensity outputs. The Blackout button instantly
sends all intensities generated by the console to zero. See “Master & Black Out function”
on page 56.
Independents
The two Independent buttons are separate control channels (IND 1, IND 2) that can control
any outputs in a toggle or bump mode. These outputs can be separated from all other
controls. See “Set up Independents” on page 22.
Crossfader
The Crossfader consists of a Live and Next fader, plus the Crossfade transport buttons. It
can be used for fading between the 199 steps of the programmable Stack, or for single-
scene fading into intensities that are set blind in NEXT mode. Stack & Crossfader, page 60
