From Kyle Simmons on Facebook: How are y’all making a strobe bump button? I want it to strobe as long as I have the button pressed and stop when I let go. ---

So I did my strobe button a little differently. It’s more of a toggle. I have a cuelist that has two cues, the first cue has strobes set to off and the second has strobes set to on. I have set a zero second fade time for both cues. I also set the priority in the cuelist properties to high so that it will overide any other cues. I keep the cuelist fired at all times (since the first cue strobes are off) then I toggle strobes on with the play button when I need strobe. There may be a better way but this worked in a pinch. ---

You can get this down to just one cue as a toggle on and off by using the play toggle button ! 😀 ---

So interesting, I’ve done it that way too. Is there any other easier way ? ---

Thanks Robert! That is definitely easier than my method.
