Mirror Mode vs Client Mode

What is the best set up for EOS at the design table- I am primarily used to a standard Obsession/Expression RVI- but not the venue has upgraded to an ION at the Tech Table with an EOS in the Booth- 

Is mirror mode the way to go or client mode?

Is there a macro to swap the ION between Mirror and Client Mode? 

Basically I want the following-

Cue Sheet-

Command Line to see what is being typed-

Channels that follow what the LD Types-

Thoughts?

  • Found the Macro for Mirror Mode Info- But would still love any info about other tech table setup-

    Creating a Mirror Mode Macro
    To create a macro to place a device in mirror mode:
    Step 1: Set the User ID of all devices to match the Primary.
    Step 2: Press ALT + M to open the mirror mode display.
    Step 3: Highlight the device to mirror.
    Step 4: Press [Learn] [x] [Enter] to record the macro.
    To create a macro to exit mirror mode:
    Step 5: With the console in mirror mode, press [Learn] [x] [Enter]
    Step 6: Press ALT + X
    Step 7: Press [Learn] to finish recording the macro.
    Once the macros are created, you should save the show and set all User IDs back.

  • Hey Chad,

    If I remember correctly, in Client mode you have control over the screens and command line, so you could program, set the screens that you see, etc.  You would not see the programmer's command line, only the resulting changes in channels, etc.

    In mirror mode, you don't have any control at the local console, only an exact mirror of what the target desk is doing, including the programmer's command line.

    Hope that helps!
