11 Working with a Single Cue List 175
Rate
The {Rate} softkey can be used to apply a rate adjustment to all timing in the cue. The default rate
is 100%, which is real time. To slow a cue down, set the rate below 100%, to speed the cue up, set
the rate above 100%. The range rate for a cue is 0 - 2000%. A timing value of 5, with a rate of 50%
will replay in 10 seconds. A timing value of 5, with a rate of 200% will replay in 2.5 seconds.
Following is an example of using rate:
[Record] <Cue> [4] {Rate} [1] [2] [5] [Enter] - records the specified cue, and places a rate
override instruction on all timing values. The cue would now be played back at 125% of recorded
time values.
Curve
{Curve} is used to affect the percent completion of a cue or part by applying the curve’s output level
as the percent completion for all fade calculations.
Following is an example of how to assign a curve to a cue:
• [Cue] [6] <More SK> {Curve} [5] [Enter] - applies curve 5 to cue 6.
When a curve is applied to cue, it impacts only the intensity transitions in that cue. When applied to
a cue part, it impacts any parameters moving in that part. For more information on creating and
using curves see Storing and Using Curves, page 277.
Label
[Label] is used to attach an alphanumeric label to a cue or cue part.
Following is an example of how to apply a label to a cue:
• [Record] <Cue> [7] [Label] <name> [Enter] - records cue 7 and applies the label as entered
on the alphanumeric keyboard.
• [Record] <Cue> [8] [Label] [Block] [Enter] - records cue 7 and applies the name of the
hardkey as the label
Pressing [Label], when a label has already been applied to a cue, will display the label on the
command line for editing. Pressing [Label] a second time will clear the label, or you can press
[Clear] to remove the label one character at a time.
Clearing Cue Attributes
To clear attributes from a cue:
• [Cue] [n] [Shift] & [Delay] [Enter] - removes the follow or hang time from the specified cue
“n”.
• [Cue] [n] [Label] [Label] [Enter] - removes the label from the specified cue “n”.
• [Cue] [n] {Link/Loop} [Enter] - removes the link instruction from the specified cue “n”.
• [Cue] [n] [Thru] [y] {Rate} [Enter] - removes the rate instruction in cues “n” through “y”.
You may combine these to remove multiple attributes at once:
• [Cue] [n] [Shift] & [Delay] {Link/Loop} [Enter] - removes the follow time and link instruction.
Note:
You can use the playback rate override function to determine the rate at which you
want to play the cue back, and then apply that rate to the cue. This eliminates the
need to adjust all of the timing in the cue if you only need to speed it up or slow it
down. See “Using Rate Override” on page 225.
