17.1.4 Fader controls LTP (IPCB) chans
When set to Yes the fader will control the value of all channels that are patched as LTP channels – generally this is everything
apart from Intensity.
When the fader is at 0% the LTP channels are not controlled by this Cue Stack. When the fader is raised above 0% then MagicQ
crossfades the LTP channels to the values stored in the Cue under control of the fader. When the fader is at 100% then the LTP
channels are exactly as stored in the Cue.
MagicQ crossfades the LTP channels from the values that they were at before the fader was raised above 0 – i.e. the current value
of these channels. This will either be the values from other Cue Stacks, or if No other Cue Stacks are controlling these channels
the LTP or default values.
When set to Yes then the other “Fader controls” settings should generally be set to No.
17.1.5 Fader controls Absolute chans
When set to Yes the fader will control the value of all LTP chans in an absolute way - when the fader is at 0% then the channels
are at 0% - when at 100% the channels are at the programmed value. This allows direct control of the attributes from the fader.
This is similar to Fader Controls LTP (IPCB) chans except that the crossfade always starts from 0% rather than the value from
other Playbacks.
17.1.6 Fader controls FX size
When this setting is set to Yes the fader controls the size of any FX that are running in the Cue Stack – this includes FX from the
current Cue and also any FX that are tracking from previous Cues in the Cue Stack.
When the fader is at 100% then the FX is the size that was recorded in the Cue - lowering the fader reduces the size until there is
No size (No FX) at 0%.
Fader controls size affects FX on any attribute.
When set to Yes then the other “Fader controls” settings other than “Fader controls speed” settings should generally be set to No.
17.1.7 Fader controls FX speed
When this setting is set to Yes the fader controls the speed of any FX that are running in the Cue Stack – this includes FX from
the current Cue and also any FX that are tracking from previous Cues in the Cue Stack.
When the fader is at 100% then the FX runs at the speed that was recorded in the Cue - lowering the fader reduces the speed until
it stops at 0%.
Fader controls speed affects FX on any attribute.
When set to Yes then the other “Fader controls” settings other than “Fader controls size” settings should generally be set to No.
17.1.8 Fader controls manual crossfades
When set to Yes then the other “Fader controls” settings should generally be set to No.
17.2 Buttons
17.2.1 Flash activates stack
When set to Yes pressing the Flash button activates the Cue Stack and sets the level of the Playback to 100%.
When set to No pressing the Flash button sets the level of the Playback to 100% but does not activate the Cue Stack.
The overall level of HTP channels is also affected by the Grand Master and Sub Master and any active Group Masters. The Sub
Master can be configured in Setup to be an Add Swap Master.
