OPERATION (continued)
RECORD MODE
Copying Shows
Often it is desirable to copy a portion of one show (i.e. the patch) into another show. The copy
function provided on the Producer 3 allows copying an entire show from the "current show" to
any other show. Once the entire show has been copied, the user may then change to the new
show and modify the portions that need to differ.
To copy the current show to another show, the console must be in record mode. The copy
function is initialized by pressing the alter (ALT) key followed by the show (SHO) key. The
console will display "Copy Show # -". The user then enters the number of the show to which
they want the current show copied, followed by the enter (ENT) key.
The play mode of the Producer 3 is the normal operational mode for the console. In play mode
the same keys used to record dimmer/channel assignments and to record submaster looks may
be used to review the dimmer patch and channel levels within a submaster. The Producer 3 is
placed in play mode by pressing the Record button when the console is in record mode. The
Producer 3 displays "Play Show 1(or number of Show)" when it is in play mode.
PLAY MODE
Reviewing Dimmer Assignments
The dimmer to channel assignments may be reviewed on the Producer 3 by pressing the channel
(CHN) key, while in play mode, followed by the two digit channel number to be reviewed.
Single digit channel numbers (1 - 9) should be preceded with a leading zero (01 - 09). As soon
as the second digit is pressed, the dimmer window will display the first dimmer number assigned
to the channel number entered (with the maximum level (in percent) that the dimmer will go to
when the channel control is at full). Pressing the enter (ENT) key will display the next dimmer
number which is controlled by the channel number entered, along with that dimmer's maximum
patch level. Continuing to press the enter (ENT) key will step through all the dimmers connected
to that channel. Once all the dimmers for a particular channel have been displayed, all the
display windows will show dashes to indicate a break before incrementing to the next channel.
Pressing the enter (ENT) key when the dashes are displayed will increment to the next channel.
All keys on the keyboard are "auto repeat"; that is when a key is held down, it starts to repeat
after a brief time. Pressing and holding the enter (ENT) key, therefore, allows rapid stepping
through the channel/dimmer assignments.
