To get an overall view of how the Master faders are allocated and when their settings
change during the show, use the Master Title Database view (see

fig 7-11

). This view

shows the text that will be displayed in the alpha-numeric display on each Master
Fader.

The Master Title Data Base view is one window that features CADAC’s “ripple-
through” effect. This means that when you enter “Real Text” data for a Master Fader
in one cue, the data will be applied to the same fader in all the following cues up to
the next item of “Real Text”. The “ripple-through” data is displayed in a different col-
our and if the “Real Text” entry is changed, all the subsequent “ripple-text” items will
change with it.

This means that you only have to enter Master Fader Titles where they change. SAM
will take care of the rest for you. The ripple-through items will be recalled to the con-
sole in the same fashion as Real Items.

If you want to stop the Ripple-through at a particular cue, then simply right-click on
the cell and select Clear - this will blank the cell and set the “Real Text” property.
Alternatively, Ripple-through may be extended by right-clicking on a cell and select
Force-ripple from the pop-up menu.
