? EXAMPLE: To aim and load:
1. [LOAD] [CUE, GROUP, or EFFECT] [#] [ENTER]
(Message window appears.)
2. Press the desired target Bump button or Take Control button.
Complete Command: Make a complete command that specifies the
target submaster or playback fader. When you press the [LOAD] key, the soft
keys change to reveal the (ON SUB) and (ON FADER) soft keys. Use these
keys in your command before the [ENTER] key.
? EXAMPLE: To make a complete command:
[LOAD] [CUE, GROUP, or EFFECT] [#] (ON SUB) [#] [ENTER]
- or -
[LOAD] [CUE] [#] (ON FADER) [#] [ENTER].
The advantage of the Aim and Load method is that it is intuitive and fast. The
advantage of the Complete Command method is that it can be recorded as a
macro.
Range Loading
You can choose to load a range of items in a single command, rather than
loading each item individually. Simply specify a range of numbers after the
[CUE], [GROUP], or [EFFECT] key in your command. The first item in the
list loads to the target submaster or fader, and the remaining items load to the
next higher numbered submasters or faders sequentially. You can use either
method when range loading (Aim and Load, or Complete Command).
If your list of items is not numerically sequential, the items still load to a solid
block of submasters or faders; there will not be “gaps” in the loaded submasters
or faders.
? EXAMPLE: Assume that you have a show with effects 1, 2, 3, and 5
created within it (no effect 4). To load the effects onto sequential sub faders:
[LOAD] [EFFECT] [1] [>] [5] (ON SUB) [1] [ENTER]
(Effects load on submasters 1 through 4, with effect 5 on submaster 4.)
