About Working With Multiple Cue Lists
Eos provides many useful tools to allow you to work efficiently and simultaneously with multiple cue
lists. These topics focus on the features and methods used when working with more than one cue
list.
Note: This feature is not available on Element 2.
Solo Mode and Cue List Properties are topics covered in the Single Cue List chapter that are also use-
ful when working with multiple cue lists. Additional information about working with a cue list can be
found in About Single CueList (on page252).
Partitions can be especially useful when working with multiple cue lists. See About Partitioned Con-
trol (on page452) for more information.
Recording to a New Cue List
When recording cues, cue list 1 is initially used as the default cue list. Cue list 1 is displayed with only
the cue number. It does not have a lead cue list number or a “/”. To record to another cue list, that
list must be specified. Cues will then be recorded to that cue list until another list is specified, or until
the selected cue is changed in Live.
You may record up to 999 cue lists in an Eos show file.
The cue list that you are storing to is always determined by the selected cue, unless you specify a dif-
ferent cue list. The selected cue is displayed in the command line, in the PSD, and at the bottom of
the Live/ Blind screen.
The selected cue is the last cue that you affected in Live. This includes a record, an update, a play-
back action such as [Go], [Back], a [Go To Cue] instruction, or simply changing a cue attribute.
Note: It is very useful to keep an eye on the selected cue.
Pressing [Live] will resync to the active cue.
Using Record
[Record] will record all parameters of any channels that have non-home values to a specified cue.
To record to a new cue list press:
[Record] <Cue> [2] [/] [5] [Enter] - this will create cue list 2 and will record the data to cue 5 in
that cue list.
Any cues recorded after this will automatically record to cue list 2 until another cue list is specified or
the selected cue changes the cue list number.
Record Via Load
You can record a cue 1 to the next unused cue list by using the [Load] button for an unmapped
fader. [Record] [Cue] [Load] will create a cue 1 in a new cue list and will map that cue list to the fader.
Subsequent cues can also be recorded with [Record] [Load], which will record to the next available
cue within that cue list
