The best way for Live show !!!

O.k. it's go's like this:

We all know that the tool with the must useful option is the "CueList", you can do anything with the cuelist.
so, if you have all the cuelist under your hand and a simple way to control them then your the king !!!:headbang:

My tip is-
open the Cuelist Directory, disable the lock button and "wash" the two hog touchscreens with the cuelist directory and you have 175 cuelists in front of you and it's look like lines (first line is cuelist 1>25 and under that you have the second line with cuelist 26>50 and then 51>75 etc...)

After that, record the second line with "RELEASE" buttons:
press record and touch the cuelist button, you get an cuelist with cue 1 empty, set this cue macro to RL (Release Cuelist) and enter the cuelist number that above the "Release button" (the corent cuelist) for example: in line one cuelist #1 and line 2 cuelist #26 so cuelist #26 is the release button of cuelist #1 because cuelist #26 is under cuelist #1 and the macro of cue 1 in cuelist #26 will be RL1.

*to any "Release" button you must add a second macro command that say RL#(the number of the release button) so the release will be a momentry press and don't stay active. the command for release button #26 will be RL1:RL26 .

Now you have the first line to record anything on that cuelists (Effects, Cue's, Chasers etc...) and the second line with release buttons to release those cuelist in a simple way.

now you can do the same for line 3 and 4 and line 5 and 6 (line 3 for cuelist and line 4 for release buttons and the same with 5 and 6)
and you have somting like 100 active cue list to fire in a easy way and fast release.

    I just wanted to toss my two cents onto the OP. I'm new here and new to the Wholehog OS in general. My first show is coming up this weekend and we'll be using a Road Hog so I've downloaded the software to get some pre-programing done.

    This is going to be a rap show and I have no idea what to expect, no set list, no preview CD etc, so on the fly flexibility is critical. I read this post and it really helped set me in the right direction, but I wanted to add an ingredient to this stew for future noobs like myself. ;)

    If you're only using one cue for each virtual cuelist, create a cue 2 and set the comment macro to 'RL#' (# = cuelist number). Next enable 'Reset On Release' in the cuelist options. Now when you press the cue, it activates. When you press it again, it releases and resets ready for another touch. This eliminates the need for a separate release button. As far as I can work out, this will only work on cuelists with only one cue (great for colors, positions, moves etc). Now you have 50 or so buttons per screen with which to layer effects, colors, moves and more!
