Playback containing each scene is simply faded up when required. The maXim remembers (in non
volatile memory) all the channels and their levels together with the fade times for all of the scenes.
You may also use the Red Playbacks to play chases that you have recorded.
The maXim L, XL and XXL models all have dedicated blue playbacks that are always available,
irrespective of the mode of the red bank.
To simplify the playback of a show, you can record all of your looks into a stack. A stack is a
recorded list of steps that are to be replayed in order. Each step in a stack consists of either a
scene, a chase or a snapshot. Stepping from one step to the next is a Dipless Crossfade and is
usually executed manually but can be automatic. Up to 500 steps may be recorded in each stack.
If all the lighting cues in a "show" have been recorded into a "stack", then the entire show may be
performed on the stack master by simply pressing the forward "
>
" key for each lighting cue.
