Working with a Single Cue List 151
Timing
Cue timing can be applied in a variety of ways. At a cue level, timing categories are provided for
intensity up, intensity down, focus, color and beam transitions. Each of these times can have an
associated delay. Timing can also be applied directly to a channel or a specific parameter. This is
called discrete timing.
Time can be entered in minutes and seconds (example 10:15), or seconds and tenths of seconds
(example 1.3), or 100ths of seconds (example 1.35) with valid fade times from zero to 99.59. When
no time is applied at a cue level, the defaults established in System Setup are used.
See “Setup”
on page 83. .
Setting Cue Level Timing
Unless you specify otherwise, Eos assigns default fade times to any cue you record. Default timing
is designated in Setup. Cue level timing can be applied when a cue is recorded or can be added or
modified later.
Following are some examples of record commands with cue level timing:
• [Record] <Cue> [5] [Time] [9] [Enter] - puts a time of 9 seconds on all parameter timing
categories.
• [Record] <Cue> [5] [Time] [2] [Enter] - specifies the up and down fade time for all intensity
transitions of the cue. When editing a cue, if you had programmed split (different) up and down
fade times, this command would change the up fade only.
• [Record] <Cue> [6] [Time] [3] [Time] [9] [Enter] -specifies the intensity up, focus, color, and
beam times at 3 seconds and the down time at 9 seconds. The first instance of [Time] is used
for intensity up fade (meaning intensity value is fading to a higher level than is currently set)
and the second instance of [Time] is used for intensity down fade time (intensity values fading
to a lower level than is currently set).
• [Record] <Cue> [2] [Time] [Enter] - resets intensity time to default value. If the cue is
recorded with split time, this command only resets the upfade time.
• [Record] <Cue> [2] [Time] [Time] [Enter] - resets the down intensity time to the default
value.
N o t e : If a cue is provided split fade times with no delay on either side, and those times
are later the same values, the split time is cleared.
