If the channel field is selected, all channels are highlighted
white except for a selected channel, which is colored yellow.
Once you have specified an effect type, you may proceed to specify
steps, either one at a time or in ranges, and add channels to them. Specify
steps by identifying the next one in sequence or by moving through steps
with the up/down arrow keys.
Only steps that contain channels will be active in the effect. Add channels
to an effect step in any of the following ways:
• directly, either individually or in a range
• in groups, focus points or channels linked to a focus point 15
• in grouped cues or submasters
15.
Channels added in a focus point or linked to a focus point
automatically change in the step whenever they change in the focus
point.
