Chapter 4 Tutorial 4 - 43
Lesson 6
Saving your show on disk
You should always make at least one back up copy of each show you are
working on. Back up copies are stored on standard 3.5-inch computer
disks. We suggest that you make back up copies of your work after
every session during which you modify a show.
Backups include system setting information, softpatch, cues, submas-
ters, chases, and any other information that you have in the console at
the time you record the show on disk.
To make back up copies of your work requires these steps, (each is
included in this lesson):
• Format a standard double-sided, double-density 3.5-inch disk on the
console
• Record show on formatted disk
More disk information and instructions on reading a show from disk, see
Chapter 5, Using print and disk options .
