Manual cues

Hi,

Recently we had a Brazilian dance company at the Theatre Royal, and imported their showfile from a Strand disk into the Eos. The LD wanted to run the cue stack manually, so I used the syntax:

Cue 1 through [make manual] enter

The cues did indeed show manual fade times, both up and down, but when we played one back while the uptime remained manual the downtime changed to a 0 time snap. This change happened across the entire cuestack.

I fixed this with:

Cue 1 through time time [make manual] enter

which resolved the problem.

has anyone else experienced this?

Hi, that is the exact expected behaviour. The first [TIME] is the UP time and the second [TIME] the down time. Hence any cue can have either a manual up OR down time (with a respective timed down or up time) or of course both a manual up AND down time.

Cheers, Liam.

Hello

Just a question, I can't operate effects in manual mode in the CUE, right? when I press GO with the crossfaders in down position the effect starts. This is normal?

Thanks
