dj booth (2 devices)

This profile only

Assign drivers to a group, set Wi‑Fi defaults once per group, then attach groups to a zone.
Standalone presets use the zone’s device groups. Sequence lanes each target their own group.
New groups are shared across profiles by default; tick this profile only to hide a group elsewhere.
In the group editor, search and pick devices from the list to add members; Identify devices in group blinks them together.
