9. Click Save and Exit to Programmer.
10. Repeat steps 4 through 9 for all cues that you want to assign to the cuelist.
NOTE: For each additional step that you add to the cuelist, the LP-3000 will
ask if you wish to re-circulate from the new step back to the first step. If you
click Yes, you create a chase that cycles from step 1 through this step and
back to step 1. If you click No, the LP-3000 continues to program the steps
in sequence. Using the re-circulate feature is a way to create a chase in off-
line mode programming.
Hold, Start Delay and Fade Times
Recording Moving Light cues directly to playbacks and using the automatic chase
and stack features are very quick and powerful techniques for creating simple
sequences.
The LP-3000 also allows you to manually set the timing and playback values for
cues.
Timing and playback values consist of three elements:
•
Start Delay time is the duration from the start of the cue until the property of
the light responds. For example, you might want to move the beam at the
beginning of the cue and delay the color change by three seconds. You
would set a three-second Start Delay on the Color property.
•
Hold Time is the total time of the cue. For cuelists that you intend to
advance manually, the Hold Time is set to Infinite. For cuelists that you
intend to run automatically, the Hold Time is set for each cue.
•
Fade Time is the duration during which the property of the light will change
from one state to another. The Fade Time starts at the beginning of the cue.
To illustrate Start Delay and Fade times, consider the following illustration:
