Channels Stuck on, Levels in Pink/Magenta with No Cues

Symptoms/Issue

Some users have seen their levels in their channel tiles display in Magenta (pink) as if they are tracked values, but no cues exist in their show file.

Description/Explanation of Issue

Channels can be made "un-manual" by using [Shift]+[Sneak].  This will take their levels from Red to Magenta.  You may want to do this intentionally to help with recording only certain changes, or more easily being able to select certain channels using {Select Manual}.

Fix/Solution

If you have inadvertently gotten into this state it can it can be cleared in one of two ways.

  1. [Go to Cue][Out][Enter] will clear the values entirely.
  2. Select all the channels and then use {Make Man] to turn them back into Red manual values.
