CHASE RECORDING 
 
Chase steps consist of scenes which have been previously recorded.  When you record a chase step you are 
telling the TL-2448 to recall a specific scene from a specific bank. 
 
A chase must be active before it can be programmed from the chaser menu.  You can do this from the normal 

STATUS DISPLAY

.  Enter the chase number on the keypad and push    

.  

If you want to program one of the 

first 12 chase patterns, you can also make it active by pushing the 

CHASE SELECT 

button.  The LED 

indicators under the submaster faders will flash.  Push a submaster momentary button to activate any one of the 
12 chase patterns.  Note that in either case, the lower left of the display shows the currently active chase and step 
number. 
 
Chase pattern recording is done from the 

CHASER 

menu which is accessed from the main menu after you have 

made the chase active.  You can also look at and change the existing chaser assignments from this  menu. 
 
 
 
 
 
The upper display row shows the current chase step number,  the conventional bank-scene number assigned to 
the step, and the moving light bank-scene number assigned to the step. The lower left of the display shows the 
current chase number.  The current chase number cannot be changed from this menu.   
 
The bottom right of the 

CHASER

 menu  indicates how the 

Í

 and 

Î

 buttons on the keypad may be used inside 

the 

CHASER

 menu.  When “NextItem” is visible, the 

Í

 and 

Î

 buttons will move you to the next or previous 

menu item.  You may change this action by pushing the 

MENU

 button.  If you do this the display will show 

Í

Alter

Î

” and you can use the 

Í

 and 

Î

 buttons to alter the value (up or down) of the currently flashing menu 

item.  For instance – when the step number is flashing and “

previous step assignments by pushing 

Í

 or
