•
[Sub] [4] [Time] [3] [Time] {Hold} [Enter] - adds a 3 second up fade time, and a hold
dwell time. When the bump is pressed, the up fade starts. Once at the target value it will
remain there until the button is pressed again. The down fade will bump to zero.
•
[Sub] [3] [Time] [Enter] - resets all time for submaster 3 to default (Up = 0, Dwell =
Manual, Down = 0).
Controlling Subfades Manually
It is possible to take control of submasters even if they have recorded time. To capture the
fade, you must push the fader past the current fade level. Once this is done, control is
transferred to the fader for full manual control.
You may then use the fader to increase or decrease the submaster level as needed.
Execute List
The execute list for submasters can be used to trigger actions such as macros, snapshots, MIDI
Raw, Serial Strings, and cues. This works similar to the External Links for cues.
There is an {Execute} softkey that is available after you press the [Sub] button in either Live,
Blind, or the sub list display.
When you press {Execute}, the softkeys will change to {String}, {Macro}, {Relay}, {On}, {Off},
{Snapshot}, and {MIDI Raw}.
Note:
Macros can also be assigned as a button action. See Submaster Fader and
Button Configuration (on page413)
Triggering an Action
Pressing the bump button of a submaster will trigger any actions assigned to its execute list.
Adding a Trigger
•
[Sub] [1] {Execute} {Macro} [2] [Enter] - triggers macro 2 when submaster 1's bump
button is pressed.
Removing a Trigger
•
[Sub] [1] {Execute} {Macro} [Enter] - removes the trigger from submaster 1's execute list.
[Freeze] and [Stop Effect] on Submasters
[Freeze]
[Freeze] can be used to halt all effect activity on any active submaster. To activate a freeze for
only a specific submaster, press [Freeze] & [Load]. On Element 2, {Stop Effect} is a softkey
accessed via [Live] {Fader Control}.
There are two ways to remove the freeze command:
•
Press [Freeze] & [Load] again for the specific faders to unfreeze the activity.
•
Press [Assert] & [Load] or [Go] or [Stop/Back] for the specific faders to resume the
activity.
[Stop Effect]
The [Stop Effect] button can be used to stop all effects from operating on any or all faders, or
it may be used with the control keypad to stop a specific effect.
