Though saving scene safes into scenes has been suggested as a feature request.
Custom presets are also a good idea.Thanks for your input.

No problem. If this is implemented I would suggest that the presets only go from not safe to safe, not the reverse. You could easily unsafe all then apply a new preset.
The problem with the “easy” method mentioned several times is that I may want some channel parameters not safed as I intentionally want my scenes to override those particular features. This currently require additional steps and seem prone to operator errors.
I can see where having the safes part of a scene could be problematic, but the safes preset seems like a decent compromise and I suspect the underlying software infrastructre would already support this if expanded to the safes menu.
I haven’t had my system long but this has already entered my radar for improvements.
Another thing I think would be useful: individual effects have presets, how about a preset capability for the entire effects rack? Currently I plan effects-only scenes for this feature, which may be entirely adequate. My concern here is the extra steps to save only effects into a scene when I am in the midst of a show and the possibility of an error in recalling one of these scenes.
I want to be clear that I purchased the ILive-T in part because if I was architecting a system, the architecture of the ILive is similar to thoughts I’ve had about the design approach for quite some time. That and the fact that I’ve used A&H boards for many years and have several of the models.
I’ll try to offer enhancement ideas as they come up.
Thanks!
