Example:
You may want a fully lit stage to fade to almost
blackout on an 8 count and then have a bright
special POP on a character on stage.
To do this:
1. Create Cue 3 with just the special.
2. Clear the AB Cross Fader by pressing [Load]
[Enter].
3. Make sure that all Fade Handles are down
and OFF.
4. Push Channel/Fader 26 up to full.
5. Press [Record] [3] [Time] [1] [Time] [8] [Time]
[7] [Time] [0] [Enter]. This creates Cue 3 with
an up time of 1 second, a down time of 8 sec-
onds, a delay of 7 seconds on the up, and a
delay of 0 seconds on the down.
To see how this operates:
1. Push the Channel/Fader 26 down to OFF.
2. Press [Load] [1] [Enter] [Go]. This fades you
into Cue 1 time.
3. Press [Go] again. This fades you from Cue 1
to Cue 2.
4. Look at the Time Window in the Cross Fader
Display. The Time for Cue is displayed in
brown instead of the white that you have
seen up to this point. The brown indicates to
you that the Cue has a delay associated with
its timing. So, you will not be taken off guard
by the Cue actions.
5. Press the [Go] button one more time to watch
how the delay affects your Cues. You can
see what happens if you focus on CHN 1 and
26 on the display screen as CHN 1 is part of
the fade down time and CHN 26 is part of the
fade up time with the delay on the up.
