7.4.2 Playback Moving Light Chases

Chases can be played back in MIXED or SEQUENCE modes. On the console MIXED is
abbreviated by "MIX" and SEQUENCE by "SEQ". In MIXED mode, selected Chase LED's will
flash simultaneously and all selected Chases will run at the same time. If a fixture or fixtures are
included into more than one (1) Chase, the last selected Chase will be the one to take precedence.
In SEQUENCE mode, selected Chases will playback one at a time in the order they were selected.
The relevant Chase LED's will flash when running while the other Chase's LED's remain steadily
ON.
(1) Select the desired playback mode by pressing the "MIX/SEQ" button. When the LED
above the MIX/SEQ button is steadily ON, playback will take place in MIXED mode.
When the LED above the MIX/SEQ button is flashing, playback will take place in
SEQUENCE mode.
(2) Select the "CHASE" button that you wish to playback. The selected Chase or
Chases will begin to run immediately including the originally set speed and fade times.
However, the selected Chase speed and fade times can manually be adjusted on the
fly by simultaneously pressing the "CHASE" # button followed by the
"STEP/MIX/SEQ" button. A rapidly flashing Chase LED indicates that you can
manually override the preset speed and fade times by adjusting the "SPEED" and
"FADE" faders- the "TAP SYNC" function will also be enabled (see Tap Sync on
Pg-6) . A slow flashing Chase LED indicates that the Chase is running at its
preprogrammed speed and fade times. Adjusting the Speed and Fade fader at this
time, will have no effect. You can also manually trigger Chase steps by tapping on the
"STEP/MIX/SEQ" when desired.
(To synchronize your Chase to sound, simply press the "AUDIO" button so the red
LED above the Audio button comes ON. Any set FADE TIMES will not work in
Audio mode. The "TAP SYNC" LED will flash when ever sound is detected via an
internal microphone.)
