Playbacks can be the master playbacks 1 to 10 or the wing playbacks 1-1 to 1-24, 2-1 to 2-24 etc. . . Playbacks can be playbacks
with faders or virtual playbacks (playbacks on non fitted wings). Multiple playbacks can be selected using + and THRU.
For example to activate playback 18 on wing 1,
A1-18
To press GO on playbacks 3 to 5,
G3THRU5
Multiple commands can be put in a Cue Stack macro, e.g. to set the level of playback 6 to 60%
C6L60
When setting Cues to Timecode for the first time, the initial Timecode value is set to the last Timecode value in the Cue Stack +
1 second.
Added new Cue Stack macro syntax for releasing the playback that is running the macro – the R macro now supports the
parameter 0 to release itself – i.e. R0.
The G macro optionally supports two parameters separated by a /. The first parameter is the playback, the second is the Cue ID
to GO. For example, G5/6 will GO Cue Id 6 on Playback 5.

Timeline
MagicQ supports a Timeline Window for viewing the contents of Cues in a Cue Stack in a timeline format. Open the Timeline
Window using the Timeline Button.
Use encoders A to specify the level of detail shown for each head and encoder B to choose specific attribute masks.
Encoder D is used to modify the horizontal scale to choose how many Cue Steps are shown in the window.
Use encoders X and Y to scroll around the timeline.
By default all of the heads in the Cue Stack on the selected Playback are shown – use the SEL HDS ONLY soft button to make
it only show the currently selected heads from that Playback.
View Vals and View Raw can be used to view the data values rather than the timeline.
