Hold/Follow at Channel Level.

I am pretty sure it cannot be done, i did try, but maybe i am missing somethng.  Is it possible to put a Hold on a channel discreetly.  Much like timing. 

I ask becasue we are using VL1K T's and if there is a blackout and the light marks for the next cue we have to Delay the NIP's.  Would be nice if we could Hold them so if the cue time changes we would not have to change the delay.  It would work by putting a Hold on the Cue timing as well. 

Peace, Ed

  • Don't use any delay and simply make the mark cue a point cue, no discrete timing, linked./followed or delay, to be run from a GO push.

    But what it sounds like is a cue that delay follows a blackout and is also a marking cue.  You want to be able to adjust the BO cue timing and not have to also adjust the delay and follow time.  In that case use Hang, which starts counting from the end of the BO.  You can make the hang a 0 so no delay, or 2, which would delay the start until 2 seconds after the end of the BO, or do a minus 2, which would start the marking cue 2 seconds before the end of the BO, or however you need to have it run.  You then only ever have to adjust the timing of the blackout.  

    And you can apply these timing attributes as discrete timing to a channel.
