[SML] Another EOS question: clear data from channels (recorded in subs)

[Riter, Andrew]

It’s handy to remember that “0” is data!

That is so well explained - thanks for that. I shall endeavor to remember that, and explain it in those terms to students. Thanks!

@ <enter> is the magic keystroke for so many things.  It means “remove all commands on this channel.”  In subs, that means it takes the information to null.  In cues, it removes any command and allows previous cue information to track into that channel.  Understanding the difference is crucial, or you’ll spend years thinking it means @ Zero, and then getting confused when it doesn’t do that.  Don’t ask me how I know….

Found it....  Channel @ <enter> - clears it.  Been banging my head for 3 hours on that, trying to clean up subs that somehow got non-intensity data into dark channels. (Channels may have been marked for a cue, or something.)

Me again.  New frustration: beam/color data has been recorded into subs (Ion XE 20) that are on channels with no intensity.  (Ie, a sub with house lights has non-intensity data in other non-house lights channels, which keeps stomping on other onstage lighting looks.). How can I remove all the non-intensity data from those channels?  I've tried so many things, but still can't eradicate the errant data....  TIA!
