Subroutines
Subroutine is a special type of cue or submaster that places other cues within steps to be
played back in order. Steps can either contain a cue or be set to a style . A style step
contains an instruction that controls the subroutine’s playback. Styles include filters to limit
playback to a certain group of channels, loop and jump commands, and other playback-
specific styles. Available styles depend on whether the subroutine is recorded to a cue or
to a submaster.
Subroutines in Cues
Subroutines in cues play back within the cue list and can be played back on the A/B and
C/D fader pairs. If you use [Load Sub] to place a cue containing a subroutine on a
submaster, the subroutine will retain the characteristics of a subroutine cue, not a
subroutine-on-submaster.
Cue Steps
Cue steps execute the cue number they reference. If you change channel levels in a
referenced cue, any subroutine that contains that cue will play back the modified levels.
Cue steps can be given any of the standard cue fade types:
• Crossfade . . . . . . . A crossfade cue step fades all increasing levels in the upfade time
and all decreasing levels in the downfade time.
• Allfade . . . . . . . . . An allfade cue step fades all increasing levels in the upfade time
and all decreasing levels in the downfade time and clears the other
fader pair.
• Blocking . . . . . . . . A blocking cue step stops all background fades before running in
the physical fader.
You can choose to play back the referenced cue as it was originally written (known as a
dynamic playback), or you can override the recorded levels proportionally, and override the
recorded timing with times you enter in the cue step.
• Level . . . . . . . . . . . Sets an intensity level for the cue within the subroutine. The level
proportionally affects channel levels recorded in the referenced
cue.
• Fade times . . . . . . Fade times can be set to dynamic (values displayed in purple),
which means the cue will run as recorded, manual , which means
that you will have to move the faders to zero and then up to full to
manually fade in the cue step, or to a specific upfade and/or
downfade time, which overrides the recorded time in the
referenced cue.
• Follow time . . . . . Follow time can be set to dynamic , which means the next step will
execute as soon as the selected step completes, hold , which
means that you will have to press [Go] to execute the next step,
or to a specific follow time, which executes the next step that long
after the selected step starts its fade.
