Theater / GO Button cuelist

Post by TellMe »

Hello Freestyler Friends!

My big love is Theater.
Is it possible to make just a cuelist with several cues and just hit a GO button to go tot he next button?
It would be great of it's possible to set sepered fade times!

Is this function allready in Freestyler?
If not, is it an idea?

Greetings!

Not sure if you are helped by this but:
Try the "Loop all sequences" option in the cue screen (under the cog).

then it will loop all the sequences, but you dont controll when it has to shift sequence?

the best way is to use the submaster. where you press down and go each time you want to change scene/light

or you can deselct the multiselect feuture and just press 1, 2, etc when yoi change scene

I posted about this some time.

Called a theatre stack or cue stack or sometimes memory stack.

You go through, select a scene, program the look as either static/chase and then once you have a stack built, you go back to the beginning and just keep pressing go.

YES PLEASE!!!!

Aye... Many hardware desks do this (The old "Fat Frog" that I replaced with my freestyler/Tablet setup being an example).

From the user eye-view it's very simple:- A "shopping list" of cues all stacked up, start at the top (or selected) and play through each cue, one after another, with a tap of the space bar for each change.

YES PLEASE!!!! :D

Ewwww - Fat Frog!

I really didn't get on well with this desk. Had a gig a short while back where I ended up using one and just ended up getting very frustrated. I do like the ability to name cues/palettes and the fact that if you press F1 and F3 (I THINK although it was a while ago) you can play 'Frogger', or the frog game as it is called on their desk.

If I had time to sit down and program it and use it properly, rather than busking it and making stuff up as I went along, I may have got on better with it. But I just didn't like quite a few things on it. But then I was trying to do stuff that the Avo Pearl does - http://www.avolites.org.uk/avonews/pres ... pert-l.jpg What a lovely desk that is.
