Timed fader pairs
The AB and CD fader pairs are timed faders (potentiometers) through
which
MicroVision FX plays back recorded cues.
To playback the highlighted cue in the cue sheet, press the [Go] key for
the fader pair through which you want to play the cue. You can playback
cues in both fader pairs at the same time. Faders playback cues indepen-
dently of each other.
When you playback a standard cue (not a linked cue) the left fader in
each pair, A and C, controls upfade times. The right fader in each pair, B
and D, controls downfade times. The progress of the fade is indicated by
numbers in Fader windows.
You can take manual control of fades by pushing the fader down to the
50 percent level (
5
on the fader scale). Once the fader is moved to
5
,
you have manual control of the fade. You can stop the fade or manually
advance it to full.
When you playback linked cues the left fader controls intensity levels.
The right fader controls the playback rate. When you begin the cue fade,
MicroVision FX plays it back at the recorded rate. To take manual control
of the playback rate, move the fader to 50 percent. Then move the fader
up or down to adjust the rate. If right fader is set at a level other than
100 percent when you start the cue,
MicroVision FX plays it back at an
adjusted rate;
10
plays cues or steps back instantaneously,
5
plays cues
back at record rate, and
0
stops playback.
