16.3 Playback of a Stack

In a Stack, Memories and Chases follow each other according to the order set in the
Next field of the Memory and Chase menus. If no Next fields have been changed,
Memory 10 will be followed by Memory 11 and so on to Memory 999. Memory 999
is followed by Chase 1 and then Chase 2 and so on. If a Memory or Chase number has
not been recorded it will be ignored and the next recorded item, if any, will be the next
Memory played back..

Stack Controls

When a Stack is turned on, the LED/s in the flash buttons turn green.
16.3.2

Assign Master Faders

The Assign Master fader(s) controlling a Stack do two things:
1. During a crossfade they act as fade override controls. In two fader stacks the left
hand fader controls the Infade of the cue fading in and the right hand fader controls the
Outfade of the cue fading out. In one-fader stacks the one fader controls both the
infade and outfade.
2. When the crossfade is completed the fader (left hand for two fader stacks) becomes
a level control scaling the level of the current Memory or Chase.
Normally the faders are used at full. When they are in this position they do not affect
the timing of the crossfade (to take manual control of the crossfade see Section 16.35).
16.3.3

Go / Back

For a single fader stack, the flash button is the GO button. To go back press and hold
the Halt button, and press the Stack flash button.
The Flash button below the left hand fader is the GO button for a 2-fader stack.
Pressing the GO button initiates the infade of the next Cue and the outfade of the
current (stage) Cue. The Flash button below the right hand fader is the BACK button
for a Stack. Pressing the BACK button returns the current (stage) output to the
previous Cue. It is only possible to go back one cue.
16.3.4

LCD Window

A single fader stack shows the current cue label in the LCD. When the stack is first
turned on there is no output to stage so the display is blank.
Press and hold Next and press the Assign flash button to display the item that is
pending, i.e. the memory or chase that will fade in when the flash button is pressed.
A two fader stack shows the current (on stage) Cue label above the right hand fader
and the next Cue label above the left hand fader. When the stack is first turned on
there is no output to stage so the right hand display is blank.
NOTE:
completed and the time left to run.
