Most common errors made are that with LCedit+ you need to create a cuelist, then set/activate -all- lights (type v then option-enter to activate all selected fixtures), then click Add button. Now hit space bar (next step) and repeat. I just tried that with mixed results. After selecting my fixtures (trackspots) and setting the channel values the way I want them, I type v then option-enter and sometimes my trackspots go dark. I assume that the scene is now saved and the next one is up for editing, but the cue number has not increased and I can't recall the cue I just edited. This is getting very frustrating. I understand the concept and the power of using layers and having unused channels inactive. When do you expect LCedit+ 3.1 to be ready? I also have a couple of other questions. I am using a LanBox LC with LCedit II v1.3.3 and LCedit+ 3.0.2 on an iBook 600 under 9.2.2. I connect to the LC with an Asantetalk bridge. I can't seem to make this configuration work under OS X 10.2 with LCedit+ 3.0.2X. When I try to connect with the LanBox, it does not show up under Appletalk. I know that the Asantetalk does not pass TCP/IP packets, so I'm stuck with Appletalk. I also have found that using airport can be very handy, especially when wanting to program a show from the center of the house and when the musicians never seem to be around when you want to set their solo positions. However I am running into a couple of glitches. When editing in 9 with LCedit II, the mouse will freeze for a few seconds several times a minute as I grab an element in the fixture window. My movements when frozen are saved in the buffer and execute all at once when the mouse is free again. I have not experienced this since having to use a IIci to run a show as a backup. Sometimes I can't upload or download scenes to/from the Lanbox either. Another issue I have run across is when I had the pleasure of using some HES Cyberlights. I don't know what version they were, but LCedit II was able to handle them with no problems until the end of the night. We needed to power down the Cybers, but the lamps were still struck and I couldn't turn them off from LCedit. The last channel is supposed to accomplish this by transmitting the value 128, I was not able to shut it down this way. I get similar results when using the control channel for the HES Technobeam. I suppose that this is a HES issue, but I was wondering if anyone might have a solution to this one. At several hundred dollars per lamp, the owner of the cyberlights was not pleased to say the least, although I didn't fry any.
