send to dmx at update script.

Post by Johan Söderberg »

Where is it - the send to dmx interface script, I miss it!

When I now alter cues I do so blindly.
Then later I can playback what Ive blindly done in Live mode.

I find no way to "add cue" from Live mode.
And I cant figure out how to alter what is previously done while Im viewing the change taking place on stage.

Seems I'm missing some important info about how these new modes work.
What am I doing wrong?

How can i Edit a cue AND see live on stage what Im doing?[/b]

To edit an existing cue onstage, you must be in "Live" not "Cues".

To put the existing cue onstage, use the live window: enter the cue number and click "Go".

Make changes to the cue. In "Live", these changes are direct to the output.

When you are done and want to save the changes, use the command line:

Press "r" which expands to "Record:"

You can enter a cue number or just press "enter" to record over the current cue.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

There is no need for the script because "Live" is Live--changes there are sent to the output.

The other modes are effectively "blind", the changes do not appear until the cue, group or sub is used.

But note:

In Live mode, changes are not saved until they are recorded.

In the other display modes, changes are direct and alter the cue, group or sub immediately.

AHA!

There was that little "R"-sign.

Too late now, but good to know.
I spent two sleepless nights changing modes and copying from live to cue. That's a solution less recommendable :)

There's another thread from January covering this same topic.
