Using Groups when Recording Cues
Groups are frequently used combinations of channels or device traits which
can be used as building blocks when recording. There are two different
ways of working with groups:
1. The first way is to
assign
a single group to a cue. When you assign a
group to a cue, any changes that you make later in the group will be
updated in the cue also. This can be useful, for instance, when a group is
recorded with pan and tilt device trait levels (focus points) and the same
group is assigned to a number of cues. If the focus points need to be re-
focused later, you only have to update the group, all cues that have the
group assigned will be updated also. To assign a group to a cue:
Procedure: Notes:
1. Press [CUE] [#] [GROUP] [#]
2. Press [ENTER]
The assigned group number can be viewed in the "Grp" field of the
attributes line of the Preview display or from the Cuesheet display.
2. The second way groups may be used is to just use a group to set levels
while recording a cue. Be aware that if you use groups in this way any
future updates to the group
will not
be updated in the cue.
For example, to just use a group’s levels to record a cue from the Stage
display:
Procedure: Notes:
1. Press [GROUP] [#] [FULL]
2. Press [RECORD CUE] [#] [ENTER]
To just use a group’s levels to record a cue from the Preview or Tracksheet
displays:
Procedure: Notes:
1. Select the cue
2. Press [GROUP] [#] [FULL] You may, of course, bring up
the group at a different level
than full.
