Hi All,

again a noob question , sorrry!!
I'm trying hard to get my head around the VC and especially the priorities of different sliders/buttons/etc over others

So suppose I have 4RGB Par's. I create different chases. (so far so good)

Now I would like to change the colour of one or more PAR's during the show when on of the chase started. In other words the PAR's are blinking following the started chase and for example all the PAR's are red in the beginning of the song.
How can I setup my VC so that during the song I can, live, change the colour of the PAR's so that for example in the middle of the song the chase is still going on but some/all of the PAR's are yellow and by the end all PAR's are BLUE...all without interrupting the running chase.

Thx,
Mario

And what is inside the chase? I presume scenes that set values to your fixtures. If you want to change the colour of your fixtures, they need new values. Adding something to something already running will cause the HTP logic to react. If you have a 100% red scene and add 0% red + 100% green scene simultaneously, you will get a 100% red + 100% green result—typical HTP logic.
If you'd change your fixtures to use LTP, then there are possibilities.

But, if your chaser reaches the next step, the above-called scene will be undone again. So, I think you have to reinvent your workflow.
