ETC Ion Classic - Virtual Faders; Assigning Faders

356 Ion Classic User Manual
Note: If you want to specify a time or use the cue time, the [Time] command must
always be entered after any other commands, such as {Minus Links} or {SingleParam}.
The exception to this rule is {Manual}.
These can be combined within the command line as well:
•
[Go To Cue] [1] {MultiParam} {MovesOnly} [Enter]
Virtual Faders
You can have access to additional faders by using the virtual faders (see Virtual Fader Module
(on page130) ).
Assigning Faders
Cue playbacks, submasters, grandmasters, palettes, and presets are targets that can be
assigned to faders.
Faders can be assigned in a number of different ways.
•
The fader configuration display
•
The fader list
•
The cue list index
•
The submaster display
•
Manually using the [Load] button
Element 2's cue list cannot be assigned to a fader. It can only be loaded on the master
playback fader pair.
With Auto Playback Enabled
Auto Playback is a record function enabled in Setup > User > Record Default, that
automatically executes cues recorded in live on playback faders. When the cue is executed on
the playback fader, any manual parameters involved in the record operation are automatically
released to the cue and all other values stored in the cue are owned by that cue.
When the first cue is stored on Eos, the cue list of that cue automatically loads on the master
fader. Any subsequent cue lists stored will load to the next available fader.
Assigning Faders Manually
The location of playbacks, submasters, palettes, and presets on faders can also be defined as
the contents of those targets are stored.
Note: You cannot define grandmasters in this manner, they must be defined in
fader configuration display or the fader list. See Grandmaster Configuration (on
page128) for more information.
If a fader is unmapped, a target can be loaded to that location by selecting the target from the
command line and pressing the associated [Load] key. The fader will then be automatically
assigned that target.
Once a cue list is loaded to a fader, storing to that cue list automatically plays the cue back on
the appropriate fader, when auto playback on record is enabled in Setup>User>Record
Defaults.
If a fader has been configured for default mapping (see Fader Configuration for more
information), the fader will receive its configuration from the Cue List Index. Changes made to
a cue list in the cue list index will be shared with any default mapping faders loaded with that
