MagicQ User Manual 137 / 355
17.5.6 Recalculate state on jumps
This option specifies how MagicQ calculates the Cue State when playing back a Cue Stack.
When set to Yes, MagicQ recalculates the Cue State whenever a jump is made in the Cue Stack. The Output of a particular Cue
always appears the same regardless of which Cue was executed preciously. MagicQ recalculates the Output as if the Cue Stack
had been played back from the first Cue to this Cue by pressing the GO button.
When set to No, MagicQ calculates the Cue State based on the Cues that it has actually executed – when jumping to a new Cue
only the Cues that have been previously executed will make up the Output.
In tracking modes this setting defaults to Yes. In non-tracking modes this setting defaults to No.
17.5.7 Stomp other playbacks
Stomping enables Playbacks that have been completely overridden by other Playbacks to be automatically released.
This option is only relevant when the Setup, Playback setting “Stomp playbacks” is set. When “Stomp Playbacks” is set to No
then this setting is ignored.
When this setting is set to Yes then this Playback is allowed to stomp other playbacks.
17.5.8 Sync next Playback to this one
This setting enables one or more playbacks to be synchronised together so that they step the same Cue Ids at the same time.
Setting this option to yes forces the next Playback (higher number) to synchronise to this Playback. If enabled for playback PB10
then Wing 1 PB1 will be synced to it.
If you Go on this playback to a Cue Id that is not implemented on the next playback then the next playback will not change step.
It will only sync to steps where the Cue Ids match.
It is possible to synchronise multiple playbacks by enabling this setting on several adjacent playbacks.
17.5.9 External timecode
This setting affects any steps in this Cue Stack that have their Halt field are set to “Timecode.
When set to Yes this Cue Stack is controlled by external timecode. When set to No then this Cue Stack is controlled by internal
timecode – activating the Playback starts the timecode from 0.
17.5.10 Send playback state to other consoles
When set to Yes then the state of this Playback is sent to other MagicQ consoles on the network.
If the Setup, Multi Console setting “Send Playback state to other consoles” is set to Yes then the state of all Playbacks is sent to
other consoles regardless of this Cue Stack setting.
This setting requires Setup, Network, Ethernet Remote Protocol to be set to “ChamSys TX” or “ChamSys TX and RX”.
17.6 Chase Options
17.6.1 Skip first times
When this setting is set to Yes, then when the Cue Stack is activated the fade times for the first step are ignored and the levels
bumped straight in.
This only affects Cue steps set to “Chase Timing”.
