what is different trace and trace trace

[Trace] [Trace] is tracking backwards

[Trace] is looking back or "tracing" back to the source of where a channel has received it change instruction, changing the value and then tracking that value forwards from that point in the cue list.

In some scenarios depending on where you are editing the value of a channel within the cue list and what it is doing around said cue you may find that [Trace] [Trace] looks to do be doing the same as [Trace]. For example if you were sat editing a channel in a cue that sat before a cue that changed the value of that same channel to something different then the tracking forwards part of trace would not be seen.

When you say [Trace] [Trace] is tracking backwards, are you saying something different from what the manual says?

As that seems to be saying the difference in behaviour is simply that as it scans backward thru the cues, then if it doesn't find a cue that has a change instruction in it then it sets it on the first cue in the list instead of leaving it on the current cue.
