Submaster pages<br />

<strong>Expression</strong> 3 has ten pages of submasters. A page is a block of console<br />

memory that contains one set of 24 recorded submasters, corresponding<br />

to the 24 submaster sliders. The ten pages of memory increases the<br />

number of possible submasters to 240.<br />

The console displays the message Sub page 1 (2, 3...) in the upper right<br />

corner of the Playback display to indicate the current submaster page. To<br />

switch from one page to the other, press [Page], enter the desired page<br />

number, and press [Enter].<br />

When you switch submaster pages, any submasters on stage remain on<br />

stage until you move their sliders to the home position. Until the new<br />

submaster loads, submaster LEDs flash slowly, indicating that the<br />

submaster on stage is from the previously loaded page. If flashing red, the<br />

new submaster is inhibitive; if green, the new submaster is pile-on or an<br />

effect. When you move the slider to its home position the new submaster<br />

is loaded and the LED stops flashing. This prevents the stage from going<br />

black or changing levels when you switch pages. (Fast flashes designate<br />

a submaster with a dwell time of Hold. See Submaster LEDs, page 163<br />

for more information about LEDs.)<br />

Note: When you read a new show into the console from a disk, the<br />

console loads the same page number that was loaded from the previous<br />

show. Any submasters on stage when you read a new show into the<br />

console remain on stage until you move their sliders to the home position.<br />

Until the new submaster loads, submaster LEDs flash, indicating that the<br />

submaster on stage is from the previously loaded show. If flashing red,<br />

the new submaster is inhibitive; if green, the new submaster is pile-on or<br />

an effect. When you move the slider to its home position the new<br />

submaster is loaded and the LED stops flashing.<br />
