Cues in the GUI
First open the

Cues List panel

. If there are no lists being presented on the

right of the Tracks area, then click on the (left-pointing) Lists Panel arrow
in the upper right corner of the Tracks area. Then click on the Cues tab.

The three columns in the Cue list are Number, Name, and Time (for each
Cue). You can highlight any cue with a single-click anywhere on its line.
Double-click
on either the Name or the Time to start editing that parameter.
Double-click on a cue number to jump to the time of that Cue.

When a Cue is initially set, it takes the rather unexciting name of “Cue”, but it can be renamed as
several have been in this illustration.

Each Cue has a corresponding flag on the Marker Bar. The two forms of Cue display interact.
When a cue name is edited in the Cue List, its name changes on the Marker Bar. When the Cue
time is edited in the Cue List, the flag on the Marker Bar moves to the new location. Similarly,
when a Cue's marker is dragged along the Marker bar, its time also changes in the Cue List. The
entry will even move up or down the list if its new time places it later or earlier than another cue.

Cue Numbers
Each Cue has a unique number – not duplicated for any other Cue (Cue names and times are
not necessarily unique). You can’t edit a Cue number, but if cues get out of order as a result
of moving or deleting, you can renumber the entire list from the GUI Cue List. You can also
Recall an existing Cue number and Store it's time to a new number using the Remote 48.

Cues created with the New Cue sequences described above are given the lowest number
available. If a Cue has been deleted, leaving a “hole” in the numbering, that number (if
lowest available) will be filled when the next Cue is created.

When previewing Cues on the Remote 48, the list will always be in numerical order. On the
Remote 48 the STORE button can either create a new or overwrite an existing Cue Number

If you’re using the Remote 48 to store specific numbered cues, those numbers will appear on
the Cue List, and cues written with the NEW button will just skip over them. The converse is
not always true, however. If you enter a specific cue number when storing a cue from the
Remote 48, if that number already exists as a Cue on the Cue List, you’ll overwrite it.

Cue Names
Cue names only appear in the GUI. Every newly created cue is named “Cue”. To rename
any Cue, double-click on the name field in the GUI Cue List to highlight it and enter new text
(type name and press [E

NTER

]). When you rename a Cue, the name on its flag on the Marker

Bar will change also. There is no way to rename Cues from the Remote 48.
