Running Cues
The X Playbacks function lets you automatically or manually fade between recorded lighting
states, called cues, which contain intensity and/or attribute levels with associated fade, delay
and wait times, profiles, and other attributes.
There are 2 X playbacks, labelled X1 and X2, each with its own keys and sliders. The console
can be configured to use one or both of these. Each X playback runs cues in order from the
cue sheet by fading from one cue to the next unless you explicitly load a cue out of order. By
default, cue ordering is by cue number, but you can change the cue ordering by using links,
subroutines, and loops. In this section, playback is used to mean one of the X playbacks

Assigning Cues to Playbacks
Normally, cues can be run on either playback. They can however be assigned to a particular
one. The other playback will then treat the cue as if it does not exist.
cue [PB] # [RECORD] [*] - Direct Digit
[RECORD] cue [PB] # [*] - Command Line
Records the levels on the current display into the specified cue and assigns the cue to the
specified playback. 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].
