Working with a Single Cue List 157
Rate
The {Rate/Hold} softkey can be used to apply a rate adjustment to all timing in the cue. The default
rate is 100%, which is real time. To slow a cue down, set the rate below 100%, to speed the cue up,
set the rate above 100%. The range rate for a cue is 0 - 2000%. A timing value of 5, with a rate of
50% will replay in 10 seconds. A timing value of 5, with a rate of 200% will replay in 2.5 seconds.
Following is an example of using rate:
[Record] <Cue> [4] [Rate/Hold] [1] [2] [5] [Enter] - records the specified cue, and places a rate
override instruction on all timing values. The cue would now be played back at 125% of recorded
time values.
Hold
A hold instruction at a cue level indicates that any parameters with manual timing are not to be
released from the manual potentiometer when the cue is complete. If there are no manual times, a
hold indicates the intensity values are to be held on the fader. The hold attribute will release on a
subsequent cue activation.
Following is an example for use of a hold instruction:
• [Record] <Cue> [3] {Rate/Hold} {Rate/Hold} [Enter] - records cue 3 and places a hold
instruction on playback.
Label
[Label] is used to attach an alphanumeric label to a cue or cue part.
Following is an example of how to apply a label to a cue:
• [Record] <Cue> [7] [Label] <name> [Enter] - records cue 7 and applies the label as entered
on the alphanumeric keyboard.
Clearing Cue Attributes
To clear attributes from a cue:
• [Cue] [n] [Follow/Hang] [Enter] - removes the follow or hang time from the specified cue “n”.
• [Cue] [n] [Label] [Enter] - removes the label from the specified cue “n”.
• [Cue] [n] [Link/Loop] [Enter] - removes the link instruction from the specified cue “n”.
• [Cue] [n] [thru] [y] [Rate] [Enter] - removes the rate instruction in cues “n” through “y”.
• [Cue] [n] [Rate/Hold] [Rate/Hold] [Enter] - removes the hold instruction from cue “n”.
You may combine these to remove multiple attributes at once:
• [Cue] [n] [Follow/Hang] [Link/Loop] [Enter] - removes the follow time and link instruction.
N o t e : You can use the playback rate override function to determine the rate at which you
want to play the cue back, and then apply that rate to the cue. This eliminates the
need to adjust all of the timing in the cue if you only need to speed it up or slow it
down.
