Recording Cues
As with conventional channels, the easiest way to program automated
device cues is live on stage. This allows you to create a particular look and
then save it. While recording an individual device or a group of devices,
always keep in mind the following:
Trait Selection: Only selected traits (white) will be recorded, unselected
traits (gray) are ignored. See the preceding
Device Display
section for more
information on trait colors.
Cue Record Mode: As with conventional lights, levels or positions of
devices can track cue to cue using Tracking. See the following
Devices and
Cue Tracking
section for additional information.
Timing: In addition to the normal fade times of cues, you also have the
ability to change the speed of some traits of automated devices. This
depends on the particular device and is sometimes known as motor speed
or "M Speed". Consult your device manual for further information.
Follow the example below to record a cue with all the traits of a device
recorded:
Procedure: Notes:
1. Press the [DEVICE] display key Devices must already have
been assigned
2. Select devices by pressing LCD opens showing
[DEVICE] [#] [THRU] [#] [ENTER] selected devices
3. Press the [DEFAULT] key next to LCD Devices will go to their default
settings and all traits will be
selected (white) for record
4. Adjust encoder wheels or trackball
to desired look
5. Press [RECORD CUE] [#] [ENTER] Cue recorded
6. Press (RelAll) (Optional) This will release all traits to
prevent recording into further
cues.
