Recording Cues
7, 8, 9, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. In this case you only go through the cue sequence 3 times.
Note:If you link back to a cue with its Loop property set to 0 (the default) the loop will continue
forever.
Now assume that you have a series of cues that you need to call from many places in the
show, but the series needs to run more than once. In this case, you want to set up a
subroutine loop. Set up a subroutine as described above but set the Loop property of the
calling cue to the number of times you need the sequence to repeat. If necessary, you can
have a different number of repetitions each time you call the subroutine.
Note: In general, if you want to create a loop with a series of cues only once, use a linked
loop, but if you want to use the loop multiple times during the show, create a subroutine loop.
Loops can be nested up to 4 levels, which means you can have loops within loops. If you
explicitly load a playback, all loop counts are cleared so that when you run the sequence again
it will run the loops the correct number of times.
cue {LOOP} # [RECORD] Direct 1 and 2 Digit
[RECORD] cue {LOOP} # [*] Command Line
Records the levels from the current display into the specified cue and assigns a
loop count to it. If the cue already exists, an overrecord message gives you the
chance to cancel the recording. To rerecord the cue, press [RECORD] [*] again.
To cancel the recording, press [CLR] or [UNDO].
[CUE] [9] {LOOP} [5] [RECORD] Direct 1 and 2 Digit
[RECORD] [CUE] [9] {LOOP} [5] [*] Command Line
Records levels into cue 9 and sets the cue loop count to 5. For looping
subroutines, put the loop count in the calling cue. For standard loops, put the loop
count in the last cue of the loop.
cue {LOOP} # [*] changes the loop count assigned to the specified cue without
changing recorded levels. If the cue does not exist, this command creates a new
cue with no levels but with the specified loop count. You do not get an overrecord
warning with this command. To delete an existing loop count, omit the loop count.
[CUE] [9] {LOOP} [6] [*] All Modes
Changes the cue 9 loop count to 6.
[CUE] [9] {LOOP} [*] All Modes
Deletes the loop count assigned to cue 9 without changing recorded levels.
