17. Playback 345
List, # , + , # , Move , Choose
or
Scen e, # , + , # , Move , Choose
Tip: To create a single item batch on the playback bar use the list / scene number twice in
the move operation. For example: List, 1 , + , 1 Move, Choose creates a batch that only
contains list 1. The start and end numbers can be the same; this allows the creation of a
single item batch.
To create a batch in the batch directory:
List or Scene, # , + , # , Mo ve, then press an empty cell in the batch directory
window (the batch directory window can be opened by pressing Pig + O pe n + List)
17.12.2 Modifying Batch Contents
To add a list or scene to an existing batch on the playback bar:
List or Scene, # , Mo ve, then press the choose key for an existing batch on the
playback bar.
To add a list or scene to an existing batch in the batch directory:
List or Scene, # , Mo ve, then press an existing batch cell in the batch directory.
To remove a list or scene from an existing batch on the playback bar:
List or Scene, # , Mo ve, Move, then press the choose key for the batch you wish to
remove the lists / scene from on the playback bar.
To remove a list or scene from an existing batch in the batch directory:
List or Scene, # , Mo ve, Move, then press an existing batch cell in the batch
directory.
Tip: When the move key is pressed twice the command line will change from “move to” to
“remove from”.
17.12.3 Using Batches
When a batch's physical controls are manipulated, the commands mapped to those controls
will be sent to all of the lists / scenes assigned to the batch. For example, if a batch is
assigned to master 10 and its fader is assigned to Scale Playback, then moving the fader on
the batch master will scale the playback of all the lists / scenes assigned to the batch
regardless of the individual fader assignments for each list / scene.
17.12.4 Capturing
When dealing with simple batch commands such "go" and "release", batch execution is
pretty easy to understand as all member of the batch will simply perform the command.
However, when it comes to variable parameters such as intensity or playback scaling, it is
possible that one or more of the lists / scenes assigned to the batch may differ from the
batch's physical level. The default behavior of a batch is to not change the level of the list /
scene until the batch’s level has moved through (captured) the level of the assigned list /
scene. In some cases it might be desirable to immediately capture the level all of the lists /
scenes assigned to the batch without needing to move through their level. To accomplish this
hold the PIG key while moving the fader of the batch.
