The trigger for a cue determines what event is required for that trigger to execute. The most
basic is the “Go” trigger which merely requires pressing the appropriate “Go” button. Maxxyz
supports two other trigger types, “Wait” and “Follow” both of which will automatically advance
cues down the cuelist.
