The stage is where you ‘patch’ your fixtures, telling MaestroDMX which addresses your lighting fixtures are set to, which fixture groups they belong to and how they are mapped or arranged to reflect the positions of the fixtures in real life. It is very important to correctly set up your stage otherwise your light show will not work as expected.
TIP: Typically you want each of your fixtures set to their own unique address spanning an address space that does not overlap with other fixtures. For example, a 3-channel RGB fixture set to channel 1 will take up channels 1-3 out of the total 512 channels available in the universe. Then you would want to make sure that no other fixtures are overlapping those first 1-3 channels.
Click the 3-dot menu in the top right corner and select ‘+Add Stage’. A dialogue will pop up where you can name the stage or upload a stage using the “Restore from Backup” tab.
Using this 3-dot menu you can also:
‘Edit Stage’ - Change the name and description of the stage
Duplicate, Delete, and Download the stage
NOTE: It is recommended to download your stages and save them in a safe place.
