MagicQ User Manual 133 Version 1.4.9.0
When this option is set Yes then the LED in the Flash button will always be red.
16.2.4 Flash acts as Go/Back
When set to Yes, pressing the Flash button acts as if the Go button had been pressed and pressing Shift +
the Flash button acts as if the BACK button had been pressed. When set this way the button does Not act
as a bump button.
When set to No the Flash button acts as a bump button in the Normal way.
Holding Shift and pressing Flash will perform Back instead of Go.
When set to Yes the settings “Flash activates Stack”, “Flash releases Stack” and “Flash toggles” are
ignored.
16.2.5 Flash acts as Flash + Go
When set to Yes the Flash button acts as both a Flash button and a Go button.
Pressing the Flash button performs the Go function – this will active the Cue Stack, or if the Cue Stack is
already active, it will Go to the next step. At the same time the Flash button will operate in the Normal
way, setting the Playback level to 100%.
Releasing the Flash button will set the Playback level back to 0% or if the fader is raised to the leve l of
the fader.
Holding SHIFT and pressing the Flash button will perform Flash + Back.
Normally when “Flash acts as Flash + Go” is set Yes then the setting “Flash Releases Stack” should be set
to No. If the option “Flash Releases Stack” is set to Yes then releasing the Flash button will also release
the Playback unless the fader is raised.
When set to Yes, the setting “Flash acts as Go/Back” is igNored.
16.2.6 Flash toggles
When set to Yes the Flash button acts as a toggle rather than a bump. Pressing the button the first time
activates the Playback. Pressing the button again releases the Playback.
When this option is set and the playback is active the LED in the Flash button Flashes to indicate the
toggle mode is latched.
When set to Yes, the settings “Flash activates Stack” and “Flash releases Stack” are ignored.
16.2.7 Flash acts like fader
When set to Yes the Flash button has the same effect as if the fader has temporarily been raised to 100%.
This is useful for enabling the FLASH button to control attributes other Intensity. For example if the fader
is set to control FX size then pressing the Flash button would act like the fader being fully raised – so
100% FX size.
