Memories in SmartFade

Last updated

Every intensity can be stored to a memory for playback. There are 12 fader pages with 24 (48) memory faders in each page. This provides a possible total of 288 memories in a SmartFade 1248/1296 and 576 memories in a SmartFade 2496.

A recorded memory is indicated in red. The bump button lights up at full if the fader is above zero, contributing to the light output.

To select Memories mode for the faders press MEMS.

The current fader page 1-12 is indicated in the bump buttons during a second when MEMS

is pressed. You can hold MEMS to verify this and to change fader page.

Record a Magic memory

You can set up and record a random look using the Magic function.
