Submaster Displays<br />

In the display window of any programmed submaster, you will see the following:<br />

• Submaster number<br />

• Submaster label (if any)<br />

• Independent flag (if any)<br />

• I-Master flag (I.M. - if any)<br />

• Current setting<br />

Additive vs. Inhibitive<br />

You may define your submaster as additive (contributes to the live output) or inhibitive (limits live<br />

output). <strong>Ion</strong> defaults to submasters being additive.<br />

To toggle a submaster between additive, inhibitive, or effectsub:<br />

• [Sub] [7] {Mode} [Enter]<br />

Additive submasters are indicated by a green LED or a green outlined fader icon in the fader<br />

window.<br />

Inhibitive submasters display these indicators in red. Channels mastered by an inhibitive submaster<br />

are indicated with an “I” next to the intensity value in the channel display in live. Inhibitive<br />

submasters do not provide levels to the stage picture, they limit them (similar to a grandmaster). It<br />

is possible to put non-intensity parameters onto an inhibitive submaster, but it must be done from<br />

blind.<br />

For more information about effectsub, See “Effects on Submasters” on page 243.<br />

Proportional vs. Intensity Master<br />

A submaster can be set to be either a proportional fader or an intensity master. This is done using<br />

the {Fader} softkey. <strong>Ion</strong> defaults to submasters as proportional.<br />

Proportional submasters<br />

When a submaster is proportional, the slider will control all contents of the submaster (intensity and<br />

non-intensity parameters) when moved from zero. When a proportional sub is return toward zero,<br />

channel will be returned to their previous level.<br />

The bump button can be used to bump all values to their recorded levels in the submaster, or, by<br />

assigning timing values, fade the contents of the submaster up or out.<br />

Intensity master<br />

When set to this fader type, the slider will control intensity only. The bump button can be used to<br />

preset (mark) non-intensity parameters stored to the submaster. If the bump is not pressed before<br />

the slider is moved, the slider will also fade the non-intensity-parameters to their recorded values.<br />

Once the non-intensity-parameters are at their end state, the slider only controls intensity. When<br />

dropped toward zero, controlled intensities will be faded toward zero.<br />

To toggle a submaster between a “Proportional” or “I-Master” fader:<br />

• [Sub] [8] {Fader} [Enter]<br />
