Ask a generic question about the usage of QLC+, not related to a particular operating system

I can't find the point where i made my mistake, any suggestions? (Raspi3, XFCE, Raspbian, Squeezebox server daemon)

the collection contains:

Position, Dimmer and Color Collections for all 16 MHs
Dimmer and Color Collections for all 8 LED-Pars, 12 LED-Bars
Modus Scene of All 12 LEDbars
SPECIAL Scene for FaderGroup "ALL Strobe" with 37 different Strobe Values for WASHs, PARs, BARs, 1x 3500W Strobe

Got the point:

1. Removed all Contents step by step
1.1 The Special Scene sets the Speed factor. Why?
2. Checked every channel of the Special Scene
2.1 The 3500W Stroboskop Channel is a Speed Control Channel, must be the evil!

Solution:
1. Copy the fixture of the Strobo from /usr/share/qlcplus/fixtures/ to $HOME/.qlcplus/fixtures/
note: $HOME=/home/USERNAME, in Raspbian's case =/home/pi
1.1 Edit the fixture with fixture editor and set CH1 to FX oder Intensity Type instead of Speed Control
1.2 Don't rename the fixture so QLC takes the fixtures in $HOME as priority even after QLC updates
2. If all Channels set by collection are NOT Speed Controls, the factor should stay as set in Virtual Console

final Question:
After changing all Channels QLC still uses the ex-Speed-Channels still to reset SpeedFactor to 1.
--> Do i have to delete and reload all Fixtures for QLC seeing no more Speed Channels?
--> Or do i only have to delete and rebuild the Channel Groups?
Finally: Where are the Channel types Cached?


PARTIALLY SOLUTION: (simplest and fastest)
i set the Factor for each EFX manually in the Functions Tab of the Speed Wheel in Design Mode,
So the Speed Wheels global factor can stay at "1"
