13.4.1 Learn Timing
Learn Timing allows you to assign a cue's wait time value by manual executing the cues with
the Go key when the learn timing option is selected for the cuelist. If a timecode clock
assigned to that list is running when learn timing is enabled then the wait value recorded into
the wait cell will be a timecode value.
To use Learn Timing with timecode:

Toolbar to have the console create a timecode source. Controls for the timecode will

want each cue to go. A timecode frame value will appear in the Wait cell for each cue.

cue's assigned frame. For more information on timecode, see MIDI Timecode.
