Sequence 1st. step.
Creating a sequence it is a good idea to consider what has to be set in the 1 first step.
If there are a lot of shifting cues for example with Sub Master then the state where the new sequence starts can be unknown.
Example:
When a new sequence with parcans is started then all parcans are closed. In the first step two red parcans are set to full light.
In the sequence only the change is recorded meaning the two red is set to full light.
Unfortunately running the other cues left all parcans on.
So trying to run this new sequence in the cue start with only sending values to the two red parcans that they are to be full on.
As all parcans were left on from the last cue, nothing will happen all light are still on.
The first step could be made turn on all parcans, turn off all except the tow red, and then the next step can be made.
In the sequence 1st step all parcans value are changed and therefore saved in the first step.
The result will now be that no matter what the last setting was then the first step in the new sequence turn off all parcans except from the two red. They will be on.
In the next step the settings are known. Only the two red are on and therefore only the ones that are wanted to be changed has to be set.
The same issue can be seen on CMY or RGB control. In the first step set all 3 colors not just one.
