Cue List Operation
4
In the Snapshot section of your DMX-R100 (immediately above the SMPTE time code display), press the
TC LINK button so that it lights up.
5
Set your SMPTE time generator to begin at 01:00:00:00 and start it going (or play the multitrack if you
are using a striped track as your SMPTE source). The SMPTE time code display on the DMX-R100
should increment to reflect the incoming time code value. CUE 3 (the "VERSE" snapshot) will be
recalled automatically at 01:00:05:00 (five seconds in), and CUE 4 (the "track8 different" snapshot) will
be recalled automatically at 01:00:10:00 (ten seconds in).
TIME CODE values for various cues can also be set "on the fly," as tape is rolling. The following exercise
shows how to do so:
1
In the Cue window, set CUE 2's event to NA (Not Available), then select CUE 3 and then press the
DELETE button to remove it from the list. Next, delete CUE 4 as well.
2
From the Snapshot window, recall the "Tutorial 2" snapshot.
3
Start your multitrack and timecode generator. At the appropriate point in the song where you want the
faders to go to the "Tutorial 2" settings, press the STORE button in the Snapshot section (the button
immediately below TC LINK). Stop playback.
4
In the Snapshot window, you will see that a new snapshot has been created, and in the Cue window, you
will see that a new CUE has been created, calling up that Snapshot at precisely the SMPTE time value
that occurred when you pressed the STORE button. If required, this SMPTE value can be manually
adjusted by selecting it and using the ten-keypad or jog/shuttle wheel (be sure to press the Enter key on
the keypad to complete the input). Rename the new snapshot and cue with a descriptive name.
5
Begin playback again and manipulate the faders to create a different balance (or simply recall the "track8
different" snapshot from the Snapshot window). At the point at which you want this new balance to
appear in the mix, press the STORE button. Stop playback.
6
Once again, a new snapshot and cue have been created at precisely the SMPTE time value that occurred
when you pressed the STORE button. Adjust the SMPTE value as required and rename the new snap-
shot and cue with a descriptive name.
7
To complete the process and restore silence to the start of the mix (all faders down or Channels 1 - 8
cut), go to the Cue window and change the Event for CUE 2 from NA to SNAPSHOT, then select the
"silence" snapshot.
8
Start your multitrack and time code generator once again. The song will begin with the "silence" snap-
shot, then the succeeding two snapshots will be recalled at precisely the SMPTE times that occurred when
you pressed the STORE button.
9
Since Cue lists are stored in temporary memory (and lost following power-down), be sure to go to the
Title Manager window and press the NEW button in order to create a new title and save it to Flash
Memory.
Other functions in the Cue window allow you to store, delete, and recall individual cues. An undo button also
allows you to undo your last operation in this window. Note that the RECALL and UNDO touchscreen buttons
in the Cue window are duplicated by the equivalent hardware buttons in the Snapshot section of the DMX-R100.
