Okay here is the scenario:
Lx Q1 - Houselights out - 10 secs
Lx Q2 - Tab warmers out - 5 secs
Lx Q3 - Lights up (scene) - 3 secs
Lx Q5 - Chase
Lx Q6 - Restore (scene) - 3 secs
What is the process to record a chase and then have it as part of my cue list?
Hello Lufferov and other users,
Maybe you already find your own solution...
And otherwise... I hope other people can use this info to
Because it's possible to make one single static-cue list and one or more chase/effect-cue list !
In the static cue-list, you can program all things you need like normal...
- Lx Q1 - Houselights out - 10 secs
- Lx Q2 - Tab warmers out - 5 secs
- Lx Q3 - Lights up (scene) - 3 secs
- Lx Q4 - Restore (scene) - 3 secs
- and all other cue's
Set this cue-list to a Play-Button/fader like normal.
Then make your chase and put this also to a play-button/fader.
(this makes it possible to change the speed/attack when you use a midi-controller)
With this two cue/chase-lists, you can make one single Stack.
This stack is your Main-Show to play all cue's and Chases.
Now you can start to program the Stack-list
Here a how to:
First set your static cue-list to cue-1 (press the Play-Button from this cue-list ones)...
Then:
Press the Stack-Button...
Then:
Press the static cue-list play-Button...
Then:
Press the Record-Button and Record this to a new play-button/fader. (this is now your Stack play-list)
Your first Stack-cue is now stored.
Then:
Press the play-Button from your static cue-list so it go's to cue-2...
Then:
Press the Stack-Button...
Then:
Press the static cue-list play-Button...
Then:
Press the Record-Button and Record this to the Stack play-button/fader and you get Stack cue-2.
Then:
Press the play-Button from your static cue-list so it go's to cue-3...
Then:
Press the Stack-Button...
Then:
Press the static cue-list play-Button...
Then:
Press the Record-Button and Record this to the Stack play-button/fader and you get stack cue-3.
If you get more static cue's, then follow this until you get the first Chase/effect.
The next Stack-cue is to activate a Chase and a static cue...
The static cue must be the last one before you starts the chase, for now it's static cue-4 where all lights go to 20%.
Press the play-Button from your static cue-list so it go's to cue-4...
Then:
Press the Stack-Button...
Then:
Press the static cue-list play-Button...
Then:
Press the Chase Play-Button...
Then
Press the Record-Button and Record this to the Stack play-button/fader and you get stack cue-4.
This is the routine you can follow continue, until you finished your complete show.
You can at more Chase/effect-lists if you like.
In this case; Cuelux have the option you like to use and you don't have to make for each static cue a separate cue-list.
And the maximum number of cue's is endless.
Before i forgot to say:
It's easier to make a static cue-list where the "condition" stays on HALT !
Otherwise the cue-list will not stay on the cue you like to record to the Stack-list.
If there are Follow-cue's then use this option in the Stack cue-list !
A other thing...
During a chase/effect, I think it's better to use also the static cue-list to keep this always active...
If you don't use a cue from the static cue-list, then this list will be (hard)Released when you only activate a chase/effect ore a other cue-list!
I hope this info is clear enough for everybody...
(I'm still a starter to)
I will test some other options with a Stack play-list...
Maybe I found a good way, to use it for the PAN and TILT positions (like the "Palette" function on a HOG II)
.
Only we don't have moving-lights in our basic setup
For this, I will soon open a new topic.
