16.4.10 Rate Sub Master
It is possible in the Setup Window to set the function of manual crossfade fader to be a rate sub-master to control the execution
rate of the current playback, or the global execution rate of all playbacks. The rate is shown in the bottom right of the Status
Display from 0% to infinity. The fader should be set to 50% for normal execution rate.
The options are:
• Rate Master
• Global Rate Master
• Cue Stack Rate Master
• Cue Stack Global Rate Master
• Tested Stacks Rate Master
The Rate Master and Global Master affect both the Cue Stack times, FX times and Pixel FX times. The Cue Stack Rate Master
and Cue Stack Global Rate Master control just the rate of the Cue Stack (not the FX in it).
Tested Stacks Rate Master – only tested Cue Stacks from the Execute Window or externally triggered are affected by rate changes.
16.4.11 Tap to time
It is possible to change the chase speed or FX speed using Tap to Time. Holding the S button of the playback and then pressing
soft button Y (2nd soft button up on right side of touch screen).
If the current step in the Cue Stack is set to Chase Timing then the Chase speed will be modified. If the step is set to Cue Timing
then the FX speed of any FX in the current Cue will be modified.
If a Cue Stack is set to Chase Timing then the GO button can also be used to tap the time. Note that this only works on chases
when the option “Go Jumps Out of Loop” is set to “No”.
It is also possible to configure the S buttons or the GO buttons to perform Tap to Time – Setup, View Settings, Playbacks, Tap to
time buttons.
Tap to Time can also be triggered from Autom events.
The remote input can also be set to always tap to time the currently selected playback.
It is possible to set the GO button in the Master Crossfade Section to a Selected Playback or Global Tap to Time button. In the
Setup Window, View Settings, Playback, set Crossfade button function to "Tap To Time Selected" or "Global Tap to Time". "Tap
to Time Selected" affects the absolute rate of the currently selected Playback. "Global Tap to Time" affects the absolute rate of
all active playbacks.
16.4.12 Global Tap to Time
When the Crossfade button function is set to "Global Tap to Time" then the absolute rate of all active playbacks can be controlled.
This is also possible through a Global Tap button in the Execute Window.
Cue Stacks can be set to use a divisor of the tapped time - in Cue Stack Options, Audio set The rate that the Rate Divisor - by
default it is set to "Normal" and takes the tapped time. Options include "Div by 2" to "Div by 8" and "Mult by 2". The divisor
affects setting of the rate by tap to time either as the selected playback, as part of global tap to time, or as part of audio BPM rate
setting.
Cue Stacks can also have the Rate Divisor can be set to "Inhibit" - in this case the rate of the Cue Stack is never affected by global
tap to time options. This allows Global Tap to Time to be used without affecting particular Cue Stacks.
Tap to time affects the absolute rate of the Cue Stack - if it is a Chase, then the Chase Speed, or if it is a Cue Stack Step with FX
then the FX rate - the programmed rate of the Cue Stack or Cue is changed. The programmed rate is then modified by the relative
speed controllers - it can be reduced by speed masters and fader controls FX speed options before being potentially increased or
decreased by the playback rate/global rate masters.
