Solo on flash. When a playback is set to “Solo on flash”, it will black out the intensity
of all other playbacks’ intensity levels when it is flashed. If multiple playbacks are set to
“Solo on flash” they will not black out each other if flashed at the same time.
Solo safe. When a playback is set to “Solo safe”, it will not be affected by the solo
action of any other playbacks.
25.2.2 Cue-list Chase Options
Clicking the drop down box in the Chase pane allows you to select the chase mode for the
currently selected Cue-list. The 5 choices are:
Off. The cue-list does not chase and behaves like a normal cue-list. It will use the Delay
and Fade times and Halt or Follow settings of each step. This is the Default setting.
Forwards. The cue-list will run as a Chase in the forwards direction. It ignores the
Delay, Fade, Halt and Follow settings of each step and uses the BPM and Xfade scale %
settings (below).
Backwards. As for Forwards but in the reverse direction.
Bounce. The cue-list will run as a Chase and will automatically change direction when it
reaches the first or last step.
Random. The cue-list will run as a Chase with random step selection.
Note: When a cue-list is set to any of the chase modes above, its name will be displayed
in Italics.
If any of the chase options above are selected, the following settings affect the chase.
Chase Rate: Sets the chase RATE in Beats Per Minute.
Chase Xfade: Sets the transition between steps.
When set to 0, the chase snaps from step to step. When set to any other value the
chase Xfades (Cross-fades) from step to step. The duration of the Xfade is a percentage
of the step time. For example:
BPM = 60 (1 step per sec). Xfade scale % = 50. Therefore, Xfade time = 0.5 sec. (50%
of 1 sec)
The Chase BPM and Xfade settings can both be altered by either entering a value in their
respective boxes, clicking the up and down arrows or by moving the wheel which provides
smooth variable control.
Hint: You can also set the rate of a chase by tapping the go button of the playback to which the chase
is assigned. This is known as “Tap to Tempo”.
Chase during release.
If ticked, when the chase is released, the cues keep stepping and the intensities will fade out in
the release time.
If not ticked, when the chase is released, the chase will immediately stop on the current step
and the intensities will fade out in the release time.
Lock to tempo: When ticked, this causes the cue-list/chase to use the metronome timing as
set at the top of the Performance window. The cue-list is scaled to fit into a predetermined
