Chase OFF Switch
Once chases are turned on, they can be turned off by pressing the blue
Chase OFF switch. Unlike turning off individual chases with the
numbered CHASE buttons, pressing OFF will turn off all chases that are
currently running. (Note: On earlier consoles, this button was
labelled as "ON/OFF.")
Chase RUN Switch
When a chase is selected, it automatically begins running, and the LED
next to the green chase RUN switch lights up. Pressing the RUN switch
while a chase is running will stop the chase at its current step (the
lights will remain on). Pressing RUN once again will cause the chase
to resume running.
Chase STOP/STEP Switch
The red STOP/STEP switch has two functions, depending on whether the
chase is running or stopped. If the chase is running, pressing
STOP/STEP will hold the chase on its current step for as long as the
switch is held down. If the chase is not running, pressing STOP/STEP
will advance the chase one step.
Chase RATE Slider
The Chase RATE slider is used to adjust the speed at which a chase
sequences through its pattern, from one step every two seconds up to
18 steps per second. A chase which has been stored with a set rate
will run at that stored rate when recalled, regardless of the current
position of the RATE slider. To adjust this rate while the chase is
running, the RATE slider must be moved through the stored position; at
that point, the RATE slider will take over, and the chase speed will
be under manual control. This adjustment will not affect the rate of
the chase stored in memory unless the chase is then resaved to memory
(see INSERT Button, page [18]).
Chase SELECT Button
The black Chase SELECT button will either preview or record chase
steps, depending upon which mode the LP-2000 is currently in. When
the console is in Run mode, pressing the Chase SELECT button will
preview the currently selected chase on the channel output LEDs; if
the CHASE fader is down, as it should be to preview, the chase will
not be seen on stage. Preview is also possible while the chase is
stopped; the STOP/STEP button can be used to preview steps
