228 Eos Family v2.9.0 Operations Manual
Rate
The {Rate} softkey can be used to apply a rate adjustment to all timing in the cue. The default
rate is 100%, which is real time. To slow a cue down, set the rate below 100%. To speed the
cue up, set the rate above 100%. The range rate for a cue is 0 - 2000%. A timing value of 5,
with a rate of 50% will replay in 10 seconds. A timing value of 5, with a rate of 200% will replay
in 2.5 seconds.
Following is an example of using rate:
[Record] <Cue> [4] {Attributes} {Rate} [1] [2] [5] [Enter] - records the specified cue, and
places a rate override instruction on all timing values. The cue would now be played back
at 125% of recorded time values.
Note: The playback rate override function is useful when you want to speed up or
slow down a cue because it allows you to adjust the speed of the cue without having to
readjust all of the individual times within the cue. To do this, determine the rate at
which you want to play the cue back, and then apply that rate to the cue (as shown
above).
Curve
{Curve} is used to affect the percent completion of a cue or part by applying the curve’s output
level as the percent completion for all fade calculations.
When a curve is applied to cue, it impacts only the intensity transitions in that cue. When
applied to a cue part, it impacts any parameters moving in that part. For more information on
creating and using curves, see
About Curves (on page332)
Following is an example of how to assign a curve to a cue:
[Cue] [6] {Attributes} {Curve} [5] [Enter] - applies curve 5 to cue 6.
Cue Label
[Label] is used to attach an alphanumeric label to a cue or cue part.
Following is an example of how to apply a label to a cue:
[Record] <Cue> [7] [Label] <name> [Enter] - records cue 7 and applies the label as
entered on the alphanumeric keyboard.
[Record] <Cue> [8] [Label] [Block] [Enter] - records cue 7 and applies the name of the
hardkey as the label
Pressing [Label], when a label has already been applied to a cue, will display the label on the
command line for editing. Pressing [Label] a second time will clear the label, or you can press
[Clear] to remove the label one character at a time.
Cue Notes
Cues can have notes attached to them.
These notes can be viewed in the Playback Status Display and the Cue List Index by hovering a
mouse over or tapping on the + in the Label column.
You can also select to view the notes or the notes for the pending cue in a horizontal bar at the
bottom of the PSD. See
Playback Status Display Configuration (on page52)
for these additional
display options.
