Hi,

I use the Soft Encoder for 3 FX-Returns on the SQ6. When I start the Console or load the Scene, the Display of the Encoders remain “black”.  
After pressing the Select Button in one of the 3 FX Returns the Display beneath the Soft Encoders light up.  
It would be great, if the Soft Encoder Displays worked correct on startup.

Cheers  
Jan
