Recording Cues in Live
When using [Record], all parameters of any lights that have non-default values, either from manual
control, other cues, or submaster playback are stored in the target cue.
Channels that have all default values, meaning they have never been changed, are not included in
the record action, unless you specifically select the channel and press {Make Manual}. Other
possible exclusions are parameters withheld by use of filters, or if the channel parameters have
been filtered (see
). You can also select individual parameters of individual
channels (such as Cyan and Iris) and place them in a null state using the {Make Null} button if the
values are not needed in the cue you are recording.
Eos is a tracking console, meaning once something is recorded into the cue list, the cue list will
always contain information about that channel/parameter unless it is nulled, using the {Make Null}
command, or filtered using the parameter filters.
When cues are recorded they are automatically played back and manual values are released,
unless auto playback on record has been disabled in setup. Upon playback, displayed parameter
levels will be color coded for clarification of the record action:
• Blue - intensity has increased from the previous cue or a non-intensity parameter has
changed.
• Green - intensity level has decreased from the previous cue or a non-intensity parameter has
marked.
• Magenta - level has tracked from a previous cue.
• White - level has been blocked (see
).
Using Record
When the [Record] button is pressed the keypad defaults to cue mode; use of the [Cue] button is
optional. The following are representative examples of recording cues in Live. Once the cue record
has been specified, cue attributes such as timing can be combined and entered in any order you
wish.
• [Record] <Cue> [5] [Enter] - records all parameters of any channels with non-default data
into the specified cue number 5.
• [Record] <Cue> [5] [Label] [name] [Enter] - records the specified cue and provides an
alphanumeric label.
