Store this on executor number 1.
Make sure all fixtures are selected (using the group) and tap the Circular Copy > macro once.
Store this as cue number 2. Continue using the circular copy and storing cues until you have 6 cues.
This is our cue list with the different steps in the chaser.
The only problem is that it now have too much information. When you use circular copy then it takes all values of
the fixture and copy this around. That's all very nice, but not what we want in our chaser - only dimmer and color.
Let's remove the rest. Select all the X4's and press the Please key twice. This brings you all the possible attributes
into your programmer. We want to keep dimmer and color information in our cues, so we don't what that in our
programmer right now. Press
Off
and then Dimmer in the preset bar (right side, right screen) and again
Off
and
then Color in the bar. This should remove the red markers next those. Ok, now press
Store Cue Thru
and then
one of the two keys associated with the executor. In the Store window tap where it says Remove . Now we have
removed all the unnecessary values from the cue list.
Changing it to a chaser
Now we need to change the mode of the cue list. We need to tell the console that this is now a chaser.
Press the
key and then any of the keys associated with the executor where you stored the cues.
In the upper right corner of the cue window you'll see the Tool icon
- Tap it.
This opens the settings for the executor. We also looked at this for our main executor, when we activated MIB. The
top if the settings looks like this:
Figure 1: Settings for the Chaser Executor
Right now the check marker on "Is Chaser" isn't filled out so it's not a chaser. Tap it once and then tap in the upper
left corner where it says Esc .
Notice that the color has changed for the executor in the Executor Bar. It now looks like this:
Figure 2: Chaser colored Executor.
Try to move the fader down and then up to 100. Now your chaser starts running.
Changing the Chaser settings
If you can't see the cue list, then press the
key again and then any of the keys associated with executor
where the chaser is running.
Now the bottom of screen 1 gives us some new chaser specific settings. They look like this:
