Terminology Notes

It is easy to confuse the terms of scenes and submasters. The following information will help
clarify...
Submasters – faders that contain cues or looks that are played back manually.
Scenes – faders that contain cues or looks that are played back via the playback faders. All
levels recorded into scenes will be controlled by the submaster of the same number.
