• To test, fire some playbacks, then release them by pressing the
Release button followed by the select button of the playback.
The fixtures should return to your programmed release state.
7.2.9 Turning off individual fixtures
You can turn off individual fixtures or certain attributes of them using
the Off menu. This will cause the attributes/fixtures to release to their
previous state before the playback was fired.
Press Off button followed by a playback to open the 'Off Playback with
Mask' menu. Select the fixtures to be turned off, set mask as required
and then press [Off] to turn the fixtures/attributes/shapes off.
Note that on the Tiger Touch Mk1 and other Titan consoles that do
not have separate Release and Off buttons, pressing Off followed by a
playback will release it. In these cases select the softkey [Off
Playback Values] then select the playback.
7.3 Editing cues
7.3.1 Editing a cue by merging
You can edit any part of a cue you have already saved simply by
making the changes and saving the new information on top of the
cue.
1> Press Clear to empty the programmer.
2> Fire the cue you want to edit, so you can see what you are
doing. Kill all other cues to avoid confusion.
3> Select the fixtures you want to change, and make the changes.
4> Press Record Cue.
5> Press the Swop button for the cue you are editing.
6> Press [Merge] (the cue being edited is highlighted on the
screen).
7> The console will merge the existing cue with your changes.
Unchanged information is not affected.
• If you want to overwrite the cue entirely, use the option
[Replace] at step 6 – but remember that unless you are in
“Record by Stage” mode, any fixtures you haven’t changed
won’t be saved.
• To speed up editing, you can set the console to “Always Merge”
the cue. This is option A in the User Settings (press Avo and
select User Settings).
• You can also press the Swop button for the cue a second time
to select the “Merge” option (quicker than selecting the softkey
Merge option).
7.3.2 Updating stored values and palettes used in a cue
If during a show you need to quickly update a cue, or a palette used
in a cue (for example you fire a green cue and the fixtures turn out to
be not quite the right colour) the Update function lets you quickly
update either the cue itself or the palettes used in the cue.
For instant update of a fired cue, change the fixture settings and
press Update twice.
