Record functions
Insight 2x has two record functions; Record and Track . Record saves all
channels as they appear on the screen (what you see is what you get) in
the cue, group or submaster you specify . When you use Record to record
a cue, levels are recorded in only one cue.
Track is a record function that works only with cues . It allows you to build
a new cue from the previous cue’s channel settings . Tracked channels are
channels whose levels do not change from one cue to the next . A track
often runs through several cues for the length of a scene or an act.
Track also allows you to add tracked channels through existing cues . For
example, if you have created all cues for a scene, and then decide to add
a few new channels to all cues, or adjust the level of a channel throughout
the cues, Track lets you do so with one short record command
. To do the
same thing with Record would require you to add the new channels to
each cue individually.
Note: When a channel level that tracks through a series of cues reaches
an Allfade cue, the track ends.
We use the standard Record function for all cues in this chapter . Instruc-
tions for using the Track function are included in Chapter 7, Track.
