Cue Playback 245
Assigning Faders
Playbacks, submasters and grandmasters can be defined in setup (see Setup, Fader
Configuration, page 122 ). The location of playbacks and submasters can also be defined as the
contents of those targets are stored. You cannot define grandmasters in this manner, they must be
defined in setup.
If a fader is defined as an empty playback, an empty submaster, or is unmapped, a cue can be
loaded to that location by selecting the cue from the command line and pressing the associated
[Load] key. The fader will then be automatically assigned as a playback, using the lowest unused
playback number.
If a fader is unmapped, you can still load a submaster or playback to it by specifying it on the
command line and pressing [Load] for the appropriate fader. This will load the submaster or cue list
to the fader and map it appropriately.
Once a cue list is loaded to a fader, storing to that cue list automatically plays the cue back on the
appropriate fader, when auto playback on record is enabled in setup.
When a cue list is loaded to a playback, all cue attributes of that cue list are in effect. When a new
cue list is loaded, any fader attributes that can be set as direct action from the facepanel (such as
filters, timing disable, etc.) are maintained. Loading a new cue does not change the manual fader
attributes.
With Auto Playback Enabled
“Auto Playback” is a record function enabled in setup ( Setup, page 119 ), that automatically
executes cues recorded in live on playback faders. When the cue is executed on the playback
fader, any manual parameters involved in the record operation are automatically released to the
cue and all other values stored in the cue are owned by that cue.
When the first cue is stored on Eos, that cue automatically loads on the master fader. Any
subsequent cue lists stored will load to the next available fader.
Assigning Playback Faders Manually
To load a new cue into the pending file of a playback fader, when “Auto Playback” is disabled in
setup or when you want to move a cue list to a different fader, first place that cue or list number on
the command line then press the associated [Load] button for the destination playback fader.
• [Cue] [4] [Load] - changes the selected cue and loads it to the associated fader. This action
assumes cue 4 is from the same cue list as is currently selected.
• [Cue] [3] [/] [Load] - changes the selected cue list and loads it to the associated fader.
Changing Fader Pages
Eos has 30 pages of ten faders each. You can page through the 30 available pages of faders by
pressing [Fader Page], which will advance you one page for each press. To return to a previous
page, press [Shift] + [Fader Page]. Or you can jump to a specific fader page by pressing [Fader
Page] & [page number] on the keypad.
You can also scroll to a page by holding [Fader Page] and moving the rate wheel to increase/
decrease the fader page number.
When fader pages are changed, the motorized faders assume the last position the faders were in
on that page. This includes homing submasters to their required home position if needed.
