Presets
Overview
Preset selects are used to store specific luminaire parameters for the purpose of
building cues. Typically, a Preset will contain focus (pan/tilt) information only, but
with the Virtuoso console any desired parameter (including timing) can be stored in a
Preset as determined by the filter settings. The touch screen display is used to control
the filters (refer to “Filter Mode” on page 159).
Since focus is a large part of the Preset feature, no standard pre-programmed Presets
are available. These will need to be stored in relation to the specific requirements of
your show.
Features:
The most important feature of Presets is that they are referenced by cues. This feature
provides a way of saving time during the initial programming of a show and for
updating focuses or other parameters throughout all of your cues if something on stage
changes. For example, a Preset may be stored as a focus reference cue in which only
pan and tilt parameters are specified. These could be labeled Stage Center, Stage
Right, Stage Left, etc. When you use a Preset to build a cue, the Preset information is
linked directly to that cue. If a refocus is required, the appropriate Preset could be
changed and all the cues built using it would automatically reflect the change.
