exclude group 'other' from fx buttons

Post by WommelMix »

Hello, in my current setup, I have some dimpacks and switchpack along with some multichannel fixtures. Is there any way to exclude the dim/switchpack from the Wolfmix and blinder buttons? I can only find the 8 groups to configure, but 'others' seems to be missing. It would be nice to have that option available so I do not need to sacrifie a group for those singlechannel fixtures to make sure they do not light up when using the fx-buttons.

Group OTHER is not a regular Group and should mostly assigned Strobe only or Smoke devices, to not reverve a full blown Group (A-H) for just a "switch" function, ..mostly triggered by one of the Flash buttons.
I do have similar setups with Dimmer packs from time to time. As they are mostly just one channel profiles, I put them into regular Groups then, so I have regulat control by the Color buttons (even for individual colors, I can just switch on certain 1ch Dimmer packs). This way you can also enable/disable Strobe or Blinder Flash fromthese Groups.
The Group OTHER simply is an "auxiliary" Group and I would not hold my breath if it will become part of the FX exclusion in the future.
