By default, faders only play back Memories when the PLAY task is active. To change
the default, so faders always playback Memories, go to Setup>System and change
“Sliders Always Run Memories” to ‘yes’.
Blind Editing
To make changes to a Memory while another Memory is live on-stage, select the desired
Memory location. The outline will turn red. Then touch the Blind icon.
The display will change to the SELECT task, with a blue background to indicate Blind
mode. The clock on the status bar changes to ‘Blind’, followed by the label of the item
being edited.
An icon in the upper right corner of each fixture cell indicates the light’s current
attributes. Choose the lights you wish to adjust and follow normal CONTROL methods to
adjust their attributes. Once the changes are completed, press the Record button to
accept the changes, or the Release button to abandon the changes.
Left/Right Playback
Available Playlists are shown on the tool bar. To assign a Playlist to a Playback, simply
touch the one desired. In Left Playback, all cues comprising the Playlist will appear on
the left side of the screen. A green arrow next to the cue name indicates the next cue to
be run. Timings for the currently selected cue (the one outlined in red) will appear on the
right side. In Right Playback, the positions are reversed.
Once a Playlist is assigned to a Playback, further Playlists may be selected for that
Playback without releasing the original Playlist, allowing more than two Playlists to be
active at one time. To release a Playlist, press and hold the Shift button then press the
Pause/Back button above the appropriate Playback fader.
Below the cue list are several playback icons. The Green Arrow icon acts identically to
the Playback Go button. The Yellow Arrow acts as a ‘back’ button, moving back to the
previous cue in the list using a one second fade. The Release icon acts the same as the
Shift button/Pause button combination, as described above, to release the current
Playlist. The Blue Arrow/Bar icon cuts to the next cue in the list using a one second fade,
regardless of recorded times.
To scroll the playlist, use the up/down arrow icons. The double arrow icon jumps the list
to the currently active cue. Press and hold the Shift key to change the up/down arrows
to top/bottom icons. Touch the up/down icons or use any encoder wheel to move to the
top or bottom of the cue list.
Both Playbacks may be used at the same time, operating different Playlists. Playlist
assignment to either Playback may be changed at any time by selecting another Playlist
from the Playlist toolbar.
Editing of Cue Timings and Placement
To select a cue for editing, simply tap it. The cue will be highlighted in red. Double
tapping a cue selects the cue to run the next time the Go button is pressed. Triple
tapping a cue will immediately jump the Playlist to that cue and run it using a one second
fade.
