I'm looking to utilize FS with the Enttec Pro, but want to make sure I can control sequences/chases with a MIDI Controller. Can I be in the middle of a particular chase and then switch to a completely different chase utilizing the MIDI controller? Also, when switching between static scenes with a MIDI controller, can the fade time be controlled?

Thanks for the assistance.

FS will respond to midi commands and allow you to switch between 'chases'. One way to do this is to create sequences with a number of steps. Once completed, you can then then combine a number of sequences (say for different fixtures) to form a Cue. This can then be assigned to a Cuelist button. Selecting a different Cuelist buttons will change the 'chase'. FS can be set up so that the buttons/pads/keys on a midi controller will trigger different Cuelist buttons.

I'm not so sure about the fade time. Someone else on the forum may be able to answer this.

As I have discovered recently, you dont even need a midi device to send midi commands to FS. You can use some software called TouchOSC to create custom layouts on your Ipad/Iphone and send midi commands to FS via your wirleless network.

Thanks for the response. Can I switch to a different Cue in the middle of running another Cue?

thanks,
