Wait Function (Please give it back)

Hello Forum,

This comes after a long day of teching a new play:

I really miss the Wait time function of the OBS II it was/is a tool I rely on to create complex cueing especly when working in theatre

Not being able to put a wait on a part of a mulipart cue makes have "part cues" almost useless

The beauty of the Obsession (and the reason it is still so often spec'ed for running conventionals) is the ability to create a detailed lighting look on stage, record it and then decide how each part of the cue arives to its desired state.  Without wait times I have to create many discrete cues and then apply follows to recreate the old wait function.  This seems to me a giant step backwards in terms of simplicity and elegence.

So this is me begging and pleading to have the Wait function back in Version 1.5

  • Thanks for the tip on Flexi w/ Timing, Ben.  Was unaware of it, but can't wait to use it.

    On another, probably obvious point, that nonetheless threw me for a little while-  When you set/edit a cue's timing, it is automatically recorded.  With the discreet timing they become Manual data until the cue is updated.
