Update
The Update feature is used to store modified channels back into their source cues.
When Update is used, any channels that had another cue as their source, and were
modified, would not be added to the target cue.
Update is most useful when you know the exact range of cues to be modified.
Guidelines:
• Any rate modifications will affect the stored time values accordingly.
• Unexpected behavior can occur with updates involving intensity if the submaster
and Grand Master faders are not at full. Refer to “Store, Update, and Selective
Store with Submasters” on page 220.
• Update is intended for active cues only. To add sections of the live stage output to
inactive cues, use the Selective Store command (refer to “Selective Store” on
page 217).
• Any channel transferred to an independent submaster or parked in patch will not
be updated. All other cue data remains as originally set.
Note: Unlike Selective Store, Update commands are not routed through the Channel
Select panel and the filter settings.
Update a cue:
• [Update] <Cue> [n] [Enter] - updates Cue n with only those channels that were
receiving their instructions from that cue.
Update multiple cues:
• [Update] [Enter] - updates all modified channels in their source cues. Any
channels that had no source cue would not be stored.
Update a preset:
• [Update] [Preset] [Enter] - updates all modified channels in their source cues and
preset(s). Any channels that had no source cue would not be stored.
Update a preset in a specific cue:
• [Update] [Cue] [n] [Preset] [Enter] - updates Cue n and its preset(s) with only
those channels that were receiving their instructions from that cue.
Undo (reverse) an Update command:
• [Undo] [Enter] - reverses the last store/update/delete command.
