Cues, groups, effects, and submasters are the four item types in which you can store intensity
and attribute levels. In addition, each item type has properties that you can set. This section
discusses recording channel levels and text for cues, groups, effects, and submasters, and
recording up and down fade times for cues, effects and submasters.

Recording Levels and Properties
You can record levels and properties into cues, groups, effects, and submasters from the Live,
Cue/Preview, Group, Effect, or Submaster displays. Levels are always taken from the current
display and recorded into the item type specified by one of the selection keys ([SUB], [CUE],
[GROUP], or [FX]). In this section, type is used to mean one of the selection keys.
The general format for recording levels and properties is:
type # properties {RECORD]
Properties that are not listed in the command are recorded at default values for new items, and
remain unchanged when you are re-recording. If the specified item has already been recorded,
an overrecord message gives you the chance to cancel the recording. Press again to rerecord,
or [CLR] or [UNDO] to cancel the command.
If you do not enter an item type, cue is assumed. The [CUE] key in all of the examples below
is optional.
Recording clears the current selection from the Channel Control
The following records the intensity and attribute levels on the current display into the specified
cue, group, effect step, or submaster. For submasters, levels are recorded into the current
page.
