About Cue Playback
Eos, Eos Ti, and Gio each have one master fader pair and 10 motorized faders with 100 pages
for configurable cue lists, submasters, grand masters, IFCB Palette/ Presets lists, or individual
instances. Gio @ 5 has one master fader pair and 5 motorized faders with 100 pages. Ion Xe
has one master fader pair. Ion Xe 20 has one master fader pair and 20 faders with 100 pages.
Element 2 has one master fader pair and 40 faders with 100 pages. You can define how each
of the faders will function. There is no default setting for faders, which allows you the
freedom to define each fader's function in the fader configuration display or you can
configure them while programming, as the contents of those targets are stored.
Element 2's cue list cannot be assigned to a fader. It can only be loaded on the master
playback fader pair.
The master playback fader pair is located to the right of the motorized fader array, near the
control keypad. The master is a split crossfader pair.
You cannot page the master fader as it is permanently paired and always available for use.
The two buttons beneath the master fader pair are [Go] and [Stop/ Back]. The [Load] button
and playback display are located just above the faders.
Note:
On some consoles, the [Load] button for the master playback fader pair is actually
labeled as [Master].
You can page the motorized faders using the [Fader Page] button alone, combined with the
numeric keypad, or with the wheel directly below the [Fader Page] button. As pages are
changed, the faders will reset to the last position they were in on the associated page. Also,
each individual fader is provided with a [Load], [Go], and a [Stop/Back] button for operation
and playback. These buttons behave differently when the fader is a submaster or grandmaster,
and can be changed in the fader configuration display.
Fader Display and Ribbon
On Element 2, this information is displayed in the fader status display. See
Indicators in the
Element Fader Status Display (on page130)
The fader display is located on the bottom of the PSD, and the fader ribbon is located directly
above the faders. Both areas provide information about each fader including the fader
designation (S = submaster with the designation of the submaster number, L = playback with
designation of the cue list and cue number that is loaded, GM = grandmaster, PR= preset with
designation of the preset number, and IP, FP, BP, CP = palettes with designation of the palette
number).
Each area uses the fader color coding that is used in the fader configuration tools.
Grandmasters and inhibitive submasters are in red, additive submasters are yellow, playback
faders display in green, and presets and palettes are orange.
