7.4.2 Playback Moving Light Shows
Shows can be played back in MIXED or SEQUENCE modes. On the console MIXED is
abbreviated by “MIX” and SEQUENCE by “SEQ”. In MIXED mode, selected Show LED’s will flash
simultaneously and all selected Shows will run at the same time. If a fixture or fixtures are
included into more than one (1) Show, the last selected Show will be the one to take precedence.
In SEQUENCE mode, selected Shows will playback one at a time in the order they were selected.
The relevant Show LED’s will flash when running while the other Show’s LED’s remain steadily
ON.
(1) Select the desired playback mode by pressing the “MIX/SEQ” button. When the LED
above the MIX/SEQ button is steadily ON, playback will take place in MIXED mode.
When the LED above the MIX/SEQ button is flashing, playback will take place in
SEQUENCE mode.
(2) Select the “SHOW” button that you wish to playback. The selected Show or Shows
will begin to run immediately including the originally set speed and fade times.
However, the selected Show speed and fade times can manually be adjusted on the
fly by simultaneously pressing the “SHOW” # button followed by the
“STEP/MIX/SEQ” button. A rapidly flashing Show LED indicates that you can
manually override the preset speed and fade times by adjusting the “SPEED” and
“FADE” faders- the “TAP SYNC” function will also be enabled (see Tap Sync on
Pg-6) . A slow flashing Show LED indicates that the Show is running at its
preprogrammed speed and fade times. Adjusting the Speed and Fade fader at this
time, will have no effect. You can also manually trigger Show steps by tapping on the
“STEP/MIX/SEQ” when desired.
(To synchronize your Show to sound, simply press the “AUDIO” button so the red
LED above the Audio button comes ON. Any set FADE TIMES will not work in
Audio mode. The “TAP SYNC” LED will flash when ever sound is detected via an
internal microphone.)
