Variables
The cue number,
Q_Number,
typically represents actual Vx76 cue number,
board cue number or other items that can be numbered such as effects,
snapshots, macros, etc.
The cue list,

, represents the submaster number. Zero (0) will be used for
board cue playback, 1 through 30 for submasters, and 256 will specifically
represent "no submaster" for recall of items other than cues if
Q_List
cannot
remain blank.
The cue path,
Q_Path
, represents the type of data. The default type will be Cue
if no
Q_Path

Commands
MSC commands are interpreted by the console based on the number, list, and
path fields in the cue data.
Note: If part of the data is left out, the console will default to a particular action depending on the command.
Unknown commands will most commonly be reported in the log.
