+By default, a sequence is limited to 15 steps, but you can change this in the Freestyler.ini file.\\

+**Common mistake:**\\
+A common mistake is to add an extra scene by pressing “+” at the end of editing.\\
+“+” is adding a new empty scene. Not adding the scene you just have edited.\\
+\\
+Example:\\
+From scratch, 1 Scene sequence:\\
+: Editing Scene 1\\
+: Save sequence. \\
+\\
+From scratch, 2 Scene sequence:\\
+: Editing Scene 1\\
+: Press “+” \\
+: Editing Scene 2\\
+: Save sequence. \\
+\\
+From scratch, extra unwanted scene added:\\
+: Editing Scene 1\\
+: Press “+” \\
+: Editing Scene 2\\
+Press “+”\\
+: Save sequence.\\
+This gives a sequence with 3 scenes and Scene 2 and 3 will be the same as no editing are done after pressing “+” the last time.\\

 ===== Save a sequence =====

 You can use the preview {{:sq_ed_preview.jpg|}} button.
-When running a live show, you will find your sequences in the  [[playback:overridebuttons:override_buttons|override buttons]] //(if you have ticked the add to buttons option before saving the sequence)\\
+When you running a show you will run one or more sequences simultaneously. All sequences can be replayed in the  [[playback:cue:playback_sequence|cue]] which takes up to 20 sequences at the time. The sequences are to be added to this [[playback:cue_list|cue list]], which are shown in the CUE window in order to be replayed.\\
-NOTE: Override buttons only show the first step in your sequence, and there is no fade, it just snaps to the set values.

+An additional way to use a sequence is to use an [[playback:overridebuttons:override_buttons|override buttons]]
+. The override button will not replay a sequence but only set one scene as it is an override. If the sequence are to be used as override then make a sequence dedicated to the override containing only one scene.\\
+Note if there are more scenes in the sequence then only the first scene will be set by the Override button.\\

-You can also program sequences using the FX. You can see the FX button at the top right of the sequence editor.\\

+**FX** {{:fx.png|}}\\
+FreeStyler has a building FX generator that help you generating sequence and thereby reducing the amount of work when multiple fixtures are to be used in a sequence.
