My Show Fixtures

The first page you are taken to before seeing the entire Fixture Database is My Show Fixtures. These are the specific Fixture Profiles or Modes that you have already patched into your project including the Generic 8-Bit Dimmer. This page offers you a quick shortcut to patch more of the same Fixture Types you already have in your showfile. Patching from here will ensure that your Favorites are maintained and able to be used for any newly patched Fixtures.

Patch Screen

You can't edit or delete a profile if it is currently patched in your project. It is recommended to first clone and rename the profile and then to repatch your fixtures into the new profile.

INFO

These profiles are where your Global Favorites are stored. This means that even if you unpatch all of your Vortex8s in Mode 1, as long as you repatch them using this profile in My Show Fixtures, your Favorites will still work unlike most full size lighting consoles.

If a Fixture is not in the Cloud Fixture Database, the Create New button in the top right corner will allow you to create your own Fixture profile. For those who aren't familiar with creating profiles, you can always request a profile through the Blackout Help Center.

Tap Add from Database to bring up the Cloud Fixture Database where you can access over 44,000 profiles.
