Using [Copy To]

[Copy To] allows you to copy data from one channel to another, either within the current working
mode or to a different record target. [Copy To] works much like [Recall From], but in the opposite
direction, [Copy To] forces data to a channel from the selected channel, whereas [Recall From]
pulls it from a channel to the selected channel.
You may copy all parameter data for selected channels, or by using the IFCB category buttons in
the ML Control display, you may copy subsets of channel data. Entire cues and cue ranges can be
copied to other locations.
When copying entire cue(s), all timing data is copied. When referenced data is copied, if the copy
target also has data in the reference that is being copied, the target will be placed in that reference
(such as, CP 1), at its stored values. If the copy target is not included in the reference, absolute data
will be copied to the target, and not the reference.
Below are some examples of copy commands from record targets. This command is very versatile
and the following list is far from exhaustive:
• [2] [Copy To] [Cue] [5] [Enter] - copies all information for channel 2 to cue 5.
• [2] [-] {Focus} [8] [Copy To] [Cue] [5] [Enter] - copies all parameter data for channel 2, other
than focus, to cue 5.
• [3] [Copy to] [6] [Cue] [8] [Enter] - copies the data from channel 3 to channel 6 in cue 8.
• [3] [Copy to] [4] [Thru] [9] [Enter] - copies the data from channel 3 to channels 4 thru 9.

Using [Recall From]

[Recall From] is similar to [Copy To], except that it retrieves data from other locations, and can be
used only for a channel list recalling from the same channel list but in a different location (for
example, a cue). [Recall From] is essentially a "copy from" command.
You may recall all parameter data for selected channels, or by using the IFCB category buttons in
the ML Control display, you may recall subsets of channel data.
Below are some examples of recall commands from record targets:
• [2] [Recall From] <Cue> [5] [Enter] - recalls all recorded data from cue 5 for channel 2.
• [2] [-] {Focus} [Recall From] <Cue> [5] [Enter] - recalls all data for channel 2 from cue 5,
except focus (pan/tilt - XYZ) data.
• [Group] [3] {Color} [Recall From] <Cue> [7] {Make Absolute} [Enter] - recalls color data
for group 3 from cue 7 and breaks any references to record targets.
• [2] [Recall From] [Sub] [4] [Enter] - recalls all recorded intensity data from sub 4 for channel
2.
• [Recall From] [Int Palette] [1]- recalls all of the values stored in intensity palette 1.

In live or blind, hitting [Recall From] [Recall From] will put [Recall From][Cue]
on the command line.
