Reference Marks and Timing
Movement of non-intensity parameters in conjunction with a mark will adhere to the following timing
rules.
If discrete timing is used for non-intensity parameters:
When channels execute a mark, the moves will use the discrete time(s) assigned to them
in the source cue.
For Example:
A mark is applied to Cue 5, making it the marked cue.
• [Cue] [5] {Mark} [Enter]
Later, channels 1-10 are assigned discrete timing and a mark instruction:
• [1] [thru] [1] [0] {Focus} [Time] [8] {Mark} [Enter]
Then, those channels are recorded into Cue 10:
• [Record] [1] [0] [Enter]
In this instance, when Cue 5 is executed, channels 1-10 will perform their focus parameter
moves in 8 seconds, as specified in Cue 10 (the source cue, which is the source of their
move instruction).
If no discrete timing is used for non-intensity parameters:
When channels execute a mark, the moves will use the time recorded in the marked cue.
For Example:
Cue 5 is recorded with a time of 10 seconds.
• [Record] [5] [Time] [1] [0] [Enter]
A mark is applied to Cue 5 as above.
• [Cue] [5] {Mark} [Enter]
Later, channels 1-10 are assigned a mark instruction and then recorded into Cue 10 with
no discrete timing:
• [1] [thru] [1] [0] {Mark} [Enter]
• [Record] [1] [0] [Enter]
When Cue 5 is executed, channels 1-10 will perform their non-intensity parameter changes
in 10 seconds, as specified in Cue 5 (the marked cue).
