Here's how we set up our ONYX template for on-the-fly lighting control!

While cuelists are one of the most effective ways to program a lighting show in a church, concert, or other application, sometimes it takes more TIME than we have available. In this video, I'll show you our ONYX template that our LDs use to create a dynamic lighting show on-the-fly.
Thanks to Mike Luu at Signature Stage Productions for the template!

The M play! What a machine. Only played with a friends one once. I wish they still made a model of it. Mplay + Mtouch was a dream!

This is how I set my shows up also. Everything accessible and able to combine. I usually split certain fixture types in two groups so I have different intensity faders for them. I like to be able to flash them to the beat on my own. I also have some different flash patterns on faders to control the speed. Sometimes it's just nice to set that fader and let the flash pattern run while I concentrate on something else. I also have some different movements on the touch screen buttons, but I put pan/speed and tilt/speed on faders so I can adjust on the fly and get different size and speed on the movements from the same que depending on the music. The lights starts to move directly when I bring a fader up. This type of setup works really good for me because I almost never know exactly what is going to happen on stage

Exactly. It’s great for flexibility with your show!

I’ll set my playback buttons to release on next go so all the operator has to do is push the button a second time to release instead of switching the go and release modes on the screen

That’s also a great option. I do that often to make toggle-able cues
