SHOWS SHOWS
The Show is a tool for organizing a show
from its preamble until the moment the
28
lights go out on the stage. The Show tool
allows organizing all the moments of our
evening, both when we are active on stage
playing and singing but also in the breaks,
for example with videos and background
images. To create and edit the Show refer
to the B.Beat Manager Software guide.
Structurally, the B.Beat Show is divided
into Scenes, which in turn contain Slots.
The Slot is an event that can contain: The Slot
1. Backing Tracks with or without
background images
2. Images
3. Video
4. Audio tracks (uploaded to
B.Beat as projects)
5. Metronome [without Backing
Tracks] with or without back-
ground images
6. Breaks (moments when the
show goes on but, for example,
there is a musical break)
The Scene can contain a video/back- The Scene
ground image that can be alternative to
the video/image contained in the Slot. The
video contained in the Slot takes prece-
dence over the Scene Video. The scene
can be placed in LOOP so at the end it
starts again from the beginning. This can
be useful in Pauses if we have a playlist of
recorded audio tracks: the Playlist will be
repeated from the beginning until we stop
the Scene to move on to the next one.
The video part accompanying the music, if
present as images or video sequence, will
