Chase Editing; Recording Chase Beat; Recording Chase Speed; Recording Chase Speed Live - Theatrelight CUEMASTER Quick Operation

Up to 24 Chases can be run simultaneously, each at its own pre-recorded speed. When first recorded, the playback speed of a Chase is
always set to a default speed of 0.25 seconds per step (240 beats per minute). You can change this speed as follows:

RECORDING CHASE BEAT

You can set a Chase under any Scenemaster to the same step rate as live music as follows:
1 Set the Speed master to Rec Beat (the bottom of the scale), and tap [CUE GO] to the beat 6 to 8 times.
2 Hold [RECORD] and [REC SPEED], and press the Flash key of the pre-recorded Chase.
When you play back the Chase, the step rate will be the average rate which you tapped on the Cue Go button.

RECORDING CHASE SPEED

You can set a Chase under any Scenemaster to the same speed as the Speed Master as follows:
1 Set the Speed master to say 1 second.
2 Hold [RECORD] and [REC SPEED], and press the Flash key of the pre-recorded Chase.
When you play back the Chase, the time between steps will be 1 second—60 beats per minute.

RECORDING CHASE SPEED LIVE

You can view a Chase at a variable rate defined by the Speed Master, and then record the speed on the Chase as follows:
1 Set the Chase Scenemaster at Full so the Chase is playing onstage, and set the Scene Fade master at Instant.
2 Hold [RECORD] and [CHASE<<>>SHOW], and press the Scenemaster flash key to change the Chase to a Show.
3 The step rate is now under the control of the Speed Master. Adjust it to a suitable speed.
4 Hold [RECORD] and [REC SPEED], and press the Flash key of the Scenemaster.
5 Hold [RECORD] and [CHASE<<>>SHOW], and press the Scenemaster flash key to change the Show back to a Chase.
The Chase continues to step at the new speed, which is now recorded.

DISPLAYING CHASE SPEED OR CHASE BEAT

You can display the Speed Master rate as time interval in seconds or Beats per Minute on the LCD display screen :
> Hold [RECORD] and press [CUE GO] to toggle between seconds and BPM on the LCD display.
Dance music generally ranges from 90 to 130 beats per minute, with 120 beats per minute, or 0.5 second interval the most common.
