Sneak
Sneak is a softkey that you can use to fade channels on stage to a level
you choose in a specific time or to restore channels to the last level at
which they were set with a fader or submaster. For example, if you bring
up a cue, then change the look, you can use sneak to go back to the look
created by the original cue. You can use Sneak with groups, submasters
and focus points as well as with cues.
If you do not indicate a time, the sneak occurs in the default sneak time,
set in System Settings.
Follow these steps to use Sneak to set a channel level.
