Show example
Let us create a simple show in which one media layer is playing in the background and another layer is on top
of it with a logo (still image) on it. Using cues, the logo will move from the left side of the projection area to
the right side.
To achieve this, do the following:
1.
Open the
Cues
panel and make sure
Recording…
is enabled.
2.
Click the
Clr
button to clear the Programmer
3.
Go to
Layers
, select a background media and play it on Layer 1 (a green border appears around these
controls).
4.
In
Cues
, click
Save new
to create a cue with the recorded media state. A new cue appears in the Cue
list.
5.
In
Layers
, select the logo image in the Media selection panel of Layer 2, play it and use the position
controls to place it on the left side of the composition.
6.
Make sure that media selection, play mode and position control adjustments are recorded on the
Programmer.
7.
In
Cues
, click
Save new
to create a new cue.
8.
In
Layer 2
, use the position controls to move the logo to the right side of the composition.
9.
In
Cues
, click
Save new
to save the position change to a new cue.
Three cues are created in the Cue List: a background media without logo, the background media with the
logo on the left and the background media with the logo on the right.
10.
Click
S-add
to create a new cue stack in the Cue stack list. Select the cues and drag them into this
stack.
11.
Drag the stack into Playback 1.
12.
Select the first cue in the Playback list and click
Go
.
o
Enter timings for each cue (
Wait
,
Fade
and
Hold
).

Live show recommendations
Here a few tips and recommendations for live show setup:
-
Create a cue with all layers stopped and zero intensity then put it at the beginning of the main
showcue stack. This way the programming starts from blackout and there are no surprises when
jumping back to start of the show.
-
Use separate playbacks to play different sequences of media on different displays.
-
Set the User Interface so that the
Cues
,
Layers
, and
Performance
panels are visible.
-
When live, use the
Layers
panel only for adjusting minor things such as audio volume.
-
Hide the
Displays
,
GPU
and other tabs that do not directly affect the show.
-
Set hotkeys on the keyboard to play specific Playbacks (Edit > Options > Keymap), by default
F9
,
F10
and
F11
play Playback 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
