Описание: How to Create, Edit & Use Groups in ONYX™ | Faster Fixture Selection & FX Power

In this video, Edward from Obsidian Control Systems shows you how to create and manage Groups in ONYX™ — a key feature to streamline programming and take full control of your fixture selection workflow.

Why Use Groups?
Stop manually typing fixture numbers every time. With groups, you can:
• Select frequently used fixtures instantly
• Maintain custom selection orders (essential for effects!)
• Speed up programming with simple syntax like Group 3 @ 50
• Color-code groups for better organization

Covered in This Video:
✅ Recording a Group
• Select fixtures (e.g., 101 Thru 108)
• Tap Record → Tap an empty tile
• Name your group (e.g., “Spots”)

✅ Selection Order Matters!
• Create reversed groups (e.g., 108 Thru 101) for effects
• Store different versions of the same group for playback flexibility

✅ Advanced Syntax
• Use Record Group 3 Enter to record via the command line
• Edit Group 3 Enter to modify selections in a saved group
• Use Update to save changes after editing

✅ Grouping Tool Features:
• Odd/Even/Every Nth Fixture
• Blocks and Divide Modes
• Mirror Selections
• Randomize Selection Order – Perfect for dynamic effects
• Sort or Reverse your current selection
• Record random or masked selections as new groups

🎨 Customize Groups Visually
• Assign colors to group tiles for visual identification
• Drag & organize groups in the layout that works for you

🗑 Delete a Group
• Tap Delete → Select group → Confirm with Enter
