We have made some updates. However, the manual is not 100% clear on how channels 1-4 (Zones) are related to channel 8. Could you please help? Is channel 8 the rate for the channels 1-4 or are they both rates, with only difference that 1-4 is rate for zones and 8 is rate for all zones together?
Updates will be reflected in the next rekordbox fixture library update. Please find the latest update of the fixture library here.

The way it reads to me is that ch 8 is the rate for all zones (1-4) combined as long as ch 1-4 have values set from 006-255 (rate slow to fast). Zones 1-4 show values set from 000-005 as no function, 005-249 as strobe rate (slow to fast) and 250-255 as continuous on (blinder effect). Ch 8 has values set at 000-005 as no function and 006-255 as strobe rate (slow to fast). Since this fixture has 4 strobe zones within one panel with the ability to have them function independently or as a whole gives it a unique effect. This is the main reason I chose it. Without a proper 8 ch dmx config it just becomes another basic strobe panel.
At the moment, it is set in a way that channels 1-4 (zones) and channel 8 (all zones) are controlling the rate in an additive way. Please wait for the updates that will be reflected in the next rekordbox fixture library update. Please find the latest update of the fixture library here.
