Run 2 programs at same time with EMU

I am running a mobile theater lighting show. So I have "left stage" light on, and nothing else. Is there any way to turn on "center stage" light keep both lights running at the same time.


I currently have a program made up for every color or fade that I need for all my front stage lights. I am wanting a way to control each light individually from each other. So I could turn each light on or off, or to a different wash color, without affecting the other lights. 




Oh, now I see. In this case you should make a new program with left and central stage lights on. Let me know if it is not clear - I will make a short video. 

On Video 1 is the example above.


Video 2 is the only way I can think to keep the previous light on, and just add another light to it.


I was looking for a way to run 2 programs at the same time, until I basically turn one program of. 


I hope this helps clear things up.

"Example : When I select Left White, the light comes on. Good. The problem is when I select Center White to turn on, Left White goes off" - sorry, but can't imagine what you're saying. Could you please make a video of it? 

That does help for selecting all of my lights that are together to change color or dimness, but I still can't find a way to be able to have control over each section of lights. 


Example : When I select Left White, the light comes on. Good. The problem is when I select Center White to turn on, Left White goes off. 


The only way I can see doing this is to create a program for every single light cue, and just change what I need. But that is a lot of work, and a lot of programs. 


Thank you for the help on grouping though, that does help me out in another way.  

Grouping fixtures should be helpful to you. See the attached video. Am I right, does it fit your needs?
