MEMORY PLAYBACK
1. Memory Playback Mode
Memory playback mode is entered by pressing the MEM PLAYBACK key. You will be prompted to use SOFTKEY
A "Yes"
to enter this mode. If you do not wish to enter use SOFTKEY C "No".
Memory Playback Mode allows you to combine Submasters with the LED and ML scenes or chases that you have
recorded. This makes it a good mode for busking for concert or club type applications where you want to quickly
combine looks of generic lights with chases you have recorded for MLs and LEDs.
The first 24 submasters (12 on the 12/24 version) on all 24 pages of submasters (12 on the 12/24 version) are
available for playback. These can be accessed using the Preset A faders.
The Preset B faders are used to access the MLs and LEDs. The ML and LEDs are combined into one fader. If you
have recorded a LED chase and a ML chase into Fader 25 on their separate pages when you raise fader 25 in
Memory
Playback Mode
both the LEDs and MLs will be output. It is a good idea to program with this in mind if you intend
to combine these two types of fixtures together in this way. For instance you may want a blue wash of LEDs and
MLs. It would be a good idea to program both looks into the same fader on their relevant pages so that when you play
them back together you get a blue stage.
It is also possible to program some faders as LEDs and some as ML. Again be aware of this when you are planning
your programming.
When in
Memory Playback Mode, the LCD display will show as seen Figure 51.

You can assign a time to a submaster using
SOFTKEY A "Assign Fade". Press SOFTKEY A "Assign Fade" Move
the STEP RATE fader to the required level while holding down the flash button of the Submaster you want to set a
time for. To exit
Assign Fade, press SOFTKEY A again.
SOFTKEY B "Page UP" and SOFTKEY C "Page Down" will change the submaster page that you have access to.
To exit
Memory Playback Mode select the mode that you wish to go into, this can be Single Scene, Two Scene,
Submaster, ML, or LED modes. The LCD screen will prompt you and tell you which mode you are going to enter.
In the example above selecting
SOFTKEY A "Yes" will take us into LED mode. SOFTKEY C "No" will leave us in
Memory Playback Mode.
Note: Be aware that you will go into a blackout on exiting until you activate fixtures in the mode into which you exit.
It is a good idea therefore to only exit
Memory Playback Mode in a planned blackout. The only way to avoid this is
to enter
Memory Playback with channels set at a level in Single Scene or Two Scene mode. If you exit Memory
Playback
to Single Scene or Two Scene mode these channels will be on. You can then set a new scene and fade
into it in the normal way.
