Once a chase has been stored in memory it can be recalled by pressing "Chase". The display will read:
SELECT CHASE _
Select the desired chase number with the numerical keypad then press "Go". You can also use the Direct Access
keypad. The display will then read:
CHASE 02 BPM 30
STEP 01 CUE 001
The top line displays thE chase that is active and at what BPM rate while the second line displays the chase step
and what cue is in that step of the chase. This information is invaluable when you want to find out what cues are
recorded in a chase for editing purposes.
You can adjust the speed and cross-fade rate while the chase is running using the fade time fader or the chase
speed fader. Pressing "Go" while the chase is running will advance the chase one step.
Audio Sync
If there is an audio signal present at the audio input jack on the rear panel, you can sync any currently running
chase to it by enabling audio. The chase will try to derive a beat from the bass frequencies and trigger the steps
from it. When the chase is using the audio signal for its speed, the display will show the message "AUD" next to
BPM instead of a number.
Consult the chapter "System Programming" for information on how to enable audio and how to adjust the
audio input level.
Editing Chases
Once a chase is programmed and stored in memory it can be edited and re-stored at any time. You can change
the cue number at a step, you can remove steps, you can add or insert steps, you can change the speed and you
can change the cross-fade rate. You can also modify a chase and copy it to a different chase number while
keeping the original.
NOTE: Whenever you edit a chase you must always store it again, either at the same chase number or to a new
one.
To edit a chase, press "Enter" then "Chase". The display will read:
