LINKing Cue timing able to override LINKed Cue timing

I just designed and ran my first show (Beauty and the Beast) using the ION XE 20 console.  Being new to the ION XE there may be a way to accomplish the following but I did not find it. 

As with many musicals (and other shows) the same lighting is often used in more than one scene.  For instance, in B&B we are in the Village a couple of times and in the Castle several times and in the forest two times.  The same lighting is very often required BUT the fade up / fade down may well change depending on the action of the scene.  It would be very helpful if a "master" cue could be recorded and then a show cue could LINK to the master cue but the show cue would control the timing, not the master. The timing in the master would be the default and be used UNLESS the LINKing cue specified an override.

  • The major benefit to this request is that if the master is changed, for instance another instrument is added or the color is changed, the change would appear in every cue linking to the master.  I had this happen and had to go to every cue and make the same change.
