Default Values
The Default Values system was updated in Onyx 4.10
The default values (sometimes known as the home values/preset) are the values that define the default values for all fixture parameters in the show. That is to say, the fixtures will be at these values when not active in the programmer and no playbacks are running.
You can access the Default Values through the Default Values window or popout tab - both configurable to Function Keys or Sidebars, and also available on sidebar button 11 of the Compose workspace by default.
Modifying Default Values
You can customize the default values for any fixture attribute by recording the desired levels to the “Defaults” Values in the Default window. (Changes to default values cannot be deleted or reset, but they can be re-recorded.)
Default values can be modified in two main workflows.
Workflow 1

- Press
in the upper left - Select the fixtures that you wish to modify
