just as with a sound rig ... if you have selected, placed and focussed them 
carefully in the first place, if you have in mind how you built the scene, if 
you have planned the kinds of presets you have recorded, and if you have done it 
many times before, and know what each instrument could do and what light looks 
like on a body or in a space ... then you can see what is going on, and know 
what needs changing. Otherwise it is very difficult. I started with sound, but 
for many years did a lot more lighting than sound.
