Cue Playback
Playing back cues is as simple as pressing the [Go] key on a fader pair. With each [Go]
press, the selected cue (or next cue) will play back in that fader pair. If you have cues
recorded and you have just turned on your system or loaded a new show, the cue with the
lowest cue number automatically becomes the next cue, and you are ready to play back
your show. If, however, you need to start with a different cue number, you can easily select
the cue to play back next at any time.
To play back cues using the recorded fade times, make sure that the A/B and C/D faders
are at the top of their travel (level 10, furthest away from you).
In sequence
To play back cues in numerical sequence, or in the sequence determined by [Link]
commands on cues, simply press [Go] on the fader pair of your choice. Each time you
press [Go] , the next cue in the cue list (or the next cue as determined by a [Link] command)
will play back in that fader pair.
N o t e :
If you alternate between A/B [Go] and C/D [Go] , you will see the output of both fader
pairs (two cues) on stage at the same time. In general, if you want to crossfade from one
cue in the cue list, use only one [Go] key for playback.
Out of sequence
To play cues out of sequence, or start sequential playback somewhere other than the
lowest cue number in your cue list, you will need to select the cue manually and then press
[Go] .
Select the cue to play back:
Step 1: Press [Stage] . You must be in the stage display to select a cue for playback.
Step 2: Press [Cue] [ x ] , where [x] is the number of the cue you want to play back.
Step 3: Press [Go] on the fader pair of your choice.
N o t e :
You may select a cue to play back out of sequence at any time. Use this procedure to
jump to a required cue, or to exit a link loop (see Link Functions, page 89 ).
Manual control
You can override the recorded fade times manually by “grabbing” the crossfade with the
faders. You can choose to start the cue and then grab the fade in progress, or you can start
with the faders at zero and use manual control for the entire crossfade. Remember that the
left fader in the pair controls upfade time, and the right fader controls downfade time. By
moving the faders individually, you can manually control the upfade separate from the
downfade, creating a manual split-fade.
Grab a crossfade for manual control:
Step 1: Press [Stage] . You must be in the stage display to select a cue for playback.
Step 2: If required, press [Cue] [ x ] , where [x] is the number of the cue you want to play
back.
Step 3: Press [Go] on the fader pair of your choice.
