Firstly, I'd just like to say how helpful I've found this community...unheard of!
I've been using using keyboard shortcuts, and have (as described in a previous thread) been considering using an old midi keyboard as a controller. Just happened to run into another LD the other day who was doing the same thing, and he liked it, so I've decided to try it.
Setup wise, I think it should be straight forward. I think I can do everything I want with over-rides, but I have two questions:
1) Override Feature specific: say I normally have my front-lights overridden to be a solid color. Then, let's say I trigger an override button which overrides my front-lights. When I cancel the override button, will my front lights go back to their previous override setting? (I can try it...just thought I'd ask without having to set all that crap up
2) Can I make keyboard/midi controls "momentary?" That is, say I have a key somewhere that triggers an override. I would like for that key to "turn on" the override while I'm holding it, and release the override when I release the key. Dunno if there's some scripting or something I can do to accomplish this, but it's not obvious in the docs if I can...would be nice (I do a lot of moments where I black the stage and turn on a "crowd blinder" and also would like it for strobe-effect which only last a few seconds.)
Thanks!
