Using Bump Button Timing With Submasters
Each submaster bump can have three different timing values: Up fade, Dwell, and Down fade
(see
Submaster Properties (on page310)
). The default timing is set so that the bump functions
as an “on” flash key for additive submasters and an “off” flash key for inhibitive submasters.
Effects on submasters will follow submaster timing, unless timing has been placed in the effect
itself.
Note: At any time, the fader can be used to manually override fade progression or a
submaster triggered with time.
To add bump button timing live:
[Sub] [8] [Time] [3] [Time] [4] [Time] [3] [Enter] - adds a 3 second up fade, 4 second dwell
and 3 second down fade to submaster 8.
[Sub] [2] [Time] [Time] {Manual} [Time] [3] [Enter] - adds a manual dwell time and a 3
second down fade time to submaster 2. When the bump is pressed and held, it will flash
on and stay on until the button is released. It will then begin the down fade.
[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314)
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.
