MagicQ User Manual 280 / 355
42.1 Programming Mode
The MagicQ console allows the programming mode and playback mode to be configured in the Setup Window. The modes
control several of the different settings of the console. All of the settings can be configured individually – however, the modes
make it easy to change between the most frequently used settings.
The programming mode determines how the console is programmed. The options are Normal, Theatre non-track, Theatre
tracking and Hog II Warp. Most users will choose Normal.
Changing mode during programming does not change Cue Stacks that have already been programmed – it only affects the
programming of new Cue Stacks.
The setting affected by changing mode are:
