as a “Go to Cue” Key, you do not have to use the
[Go] key. [Load] [#] [Enter] will immediately bring
Cue # up on stage.
Example:
An actor is nervous on opening night. In the mid-
dle of the second act, the actor skips 5 pages of
dialogue and 2 lighting Cues. In response, the
operator can immediately go out of sequence to
the Cue that corresponds to where the actor has
advanced.
To make the [Load] key a Go-To-Cue key:
1. Press [Setup] to go to the Setup Screen.
2. Press [9] [F2] [Enter].
3. Return to the Stage Screen (Press [Stage]).
4. Press [Load] [#] [Enter] to instantly go to any
desired Cue that is out of sequence.
The one drawback is that the Cue put on stage in
a TIME 0 SECONDS will POP ON. This may dis-
tract the actors and audience. A Go to Cue in
Time is better.
GO TO CUE IN TIME/ SNEAK FUNCTION
To lessen the visual impact of going to a Cue out
of sequence, it is often advisable to sneak the
Cue onto the stage IN TIME. With the Bijou, this
is easy to do using the Go-To-Sequence, but
adding [Time] to the sequence. The keystroke is:
[Load] [#] (Cue) [Time] [#] (in seconds) [Enter].
Example:
Go-To-Cue 5 in a time of 20 seconds. You enter:
[Load] [5] [Time] [2] [0] [Enter].
RUNNING TWO DIFFERENT PRERECORDED
CUE STACKS
The Bijou can run two different Cue sequences,
one on the XY Fader and the other on the AB
Fader, at the same time.
Example:
