Is there a way for a Cue List to execute the NEXT cue on a secondary list ?

I am experimenting with a situation where every time a cue is fired, I would like it to fire the next cue on a secondary list. Does anyone know the syntax for this ? For example, I would like Cue List 901, Cue 1 to fire Cue List 911, Cue 1 the first time it is fired, and then to fire Cue List 911, Cue 2 the next time it is fired, and so on and so forth.

I can get a cue list to execute a specific cue in the secondary list, and I can get a cue list to execute an entire other list, but can't think of the syntax to execute the NEXT cue in a list. I tried to make a Macro to do this, [Go to Cue 911/Next], but it did not function as I expected.

Can anyone assist ?

If i think wright,...
Normaly the NEXT Cue will fire automatic. So all you must do is "Cue 2/ GO"
This in a Macro and this Macro in every Cue in Cuelist 1.

Or the Cuelist 2 (normaly the EOS do this by himself with programming
first Step for the Cuelist 2) on a Submaster then teach a Macro you press the GO Button for this Submaster and fire this Macro with every Cue in List 1.

Thats the ways i think i try it.

Thanks Louis.

I was trying to avoid a Macro, but after a little more experimentation, it seems:

Go_CueList 921 <Enter>

seems to do what I need. Will that have any unforeseen consequences in terms of Fader assignment etc ?

Are there other ways of doing this ?

unless you want to consider renumbering the cues of the second cuelist to match the cues of the first cuelist i don't think you will find another way.
well, now that i think about it, maybe you can find a creative way of modifying the OSC Cue string in show control setup...

For me my Macro say:
Go_Cuelist 2Fader3

But i think it is the same like yours.

On fader 3 i have now Cuelist 2.
This Macro in every Cue at Cuelist 1 and with every Go in Cuelist 1 i fire automatic Cuelist 2 also.

Perfect. As on occasions I need to remap faders, I have removed the Fader part from the Macro, and made it Background, which seems to fire the list correctly regardless of where it is mapped to.

Thanks for all your advice Louis and Ueli.
