MagicQ User Manual 138 Version 1.4.9.0
When set to No then the levels of HTP channels are not affected by the grand master and sub master
faders. They are also not affected by DBO or by SHIFT RELEASE.
Note that Group Masters are not affected by this setting. Therefore even with “Masters affect level” set to
No, channels will still be affected by Group Masters.
16.5.4 Playback priority
The Playback priority can be set to NORMAL, HIGH and ABOVE PROGRAMMER.
When all Playbacks are set to priority NORMAL then the latest Playback to be activated/reasserted will
control the channels.
Playbacks set to HIGH priority always have higher priority than Playbacks set to NoMAL priority.
Playbacks set to ABOVE PROGRAMMER have higher priority than the Programmer – in order to edit the
Cues in the Programmer and see the changes on the Output it is best to release the Cue Stack.
16.5.5 Move when dark
When set to Yes, then MagicQ checks after each Cue is executed whether it should perform a move when
dark.
Any heads that are used in the next Cue but which have 0% intensity in the current cue are checked to see
whether the Position, Beam and Colour attributes should be preloaded before the next Cue is executed. If
the Position, Beam or Colour values are different from the current values then the new values are
crossfaded with a time of 3 seconds.
This option is similar to putting a Mark Cue before every Cue in a Cue Stack.
16.5.6 Recalculate state on jumps
This option specifies how MagicQ calculates the Cue State when playing back a Cue Stack.
When set to Yes, MagicQ recalculates the Cue State whenever a jump is made in the Cue Stack. The
Output of a particular Cue always appears the same regardless of which Cue was executed preciously.
MagicQ recalculates the Output as if the Cue Stack had been played back from the first Cue to this Cue by
pressing the GO button.
When set to No, MagicQ calculates the Cue State based on the Cues that it has actually executed – when
jumping to a new Cue only the Cues that have been previously executed will make up the Output.
In tracking modes this setting defaults to Yes. In non-tracking modes this setting defaults to No.
16.5.7 Stomp other playbacks
Stomping enables Playbacks that have been completely overridden by other Playbacks to be automatically
released.
This option is only relevant when the Setup, Playback setting “Stomp playbacks” is set. When “Stomp
Playbacks” is set to No then this setting is ignored.
When this setting is set to Yes then this Playback is allowed to stomp other playbacks.
