Update vs. Record Only

Coming from Obsession world, I used [update] frequently.

On Eos I have run into some trouble using [update] to modify cues.

Currently, I use update to modify groups, palettes & presets.  I use [record only] to modify cues.

 What is the difference between [update] & [record only]?

thanks, Kathy

  • If I read your reply very slowly and carefully, it all makes sense.  It's going to take a while.  I definitely see the advantages of both [update] and [record only].

    I'm digging the [make manual] command.  Now I see the advantage of the [make absolute] command as well.

    Whew!  It's a lot of stuff to cram in my (tiny) head.

    ciao, Kathy

  • I hear you!!  It's a lot to absorb.  But you'll soon come to your preferred way of working.   We'll be extending update shortly to give you more options.  This will be through a dialogue box on the central LCD just above the keypad that we call the CIA (central information area..... you've known ETC long enough to know that we do LOVE our acroynms!)

    It can be hard to read about this stuff and have it make much sense.  So the best recommendation I can give you is to play around with Record, Record Only and Update, with and without referenced data, in a single cue list and with multiple cue lists.   When you are ready, we can talk about managing multiple cue lists and investigate the assert function!!!

    Take care,
