Quick Start

Channel Control

Time

Text

Shutdown

Groups

Submasters

The console defaults to channel mode. So just start by

taking channel 1 to 100%.

1 ON: Channel 1 to the ON level – Full

1 [FULL]: Channel 1 to Full. (FULL is a softkey accessed

by the arrow keys below the LCD screen)

Now let’s take another channel to another level.

2 @ 5 *: Channel 2 at 50%. The asterisk is the ENTER key.

The ENTER key finishes off most commands.

3 THRU 7 @ 75 *: The THRU key allows you to do ranges.

Assign levels to channels until you have the look you want.

To release channel 3 type 3 UNDO, to release all UNDO *

Groups allow you to put multiple channels at different levels

into a single item. Set some channels at different levels.

RECORD GROUP 1 *: This stores the entire lighting state

as Group 1. Repeat for any collection of channels that you

want quick access to.

GROUP 1 ON: This will put all channels in group 1 on

stage at their recorded levels.

GROUP 1 * ON: This will highlight all channels in Group 1

and then set them to the ON level.

(Note: This is actually 2 commands)

Patch

Subs allow you to put multiple channels at different levels

onto a slider for manual control. Set some channels at

different levels. RECORD SUB 1 *: This stores the entire

lighting state as Submaster 1. Once recorded, the light

above the appropriate sub will be on. Just slide the

submaster up and down as needed. Repeat for any

collection of channels that you want to control by a slider.

The last fader panel (immediately to the left of the channel

control panel) is your submaster panel.

To store the look you want, record it as a cue.

RECORD 1 *: This command stores the entire lighting state

as a cue to be played back in the default time of 5.

(The Record function defaults to Cue.)

Just repeat the process of assigning levels to channels

(see Channel Control above) and record to any cue

number you want from Cue 1 to Cue 600.

You can also use point cues if you need a cue between

whole numbers.

RECORD 1.5 *: This will store the entire lighting state as

Cue 1.5. You can use any point number from .1 to .9.

Dimmer Check

[PATCH] allows you to change dimmer assignment to

different channels. The default patch is a 1 to 1 patch.

This means that dimmer 1 is patched to channel 1 and the

numerical match continues for the capacity of the console.

(The capacity can be seen from the upper right hand corner

of the patch screen.) To start fresh by unpatching all

dimmers, type 1 THRU 100 @ ENTER (where 100 is the

last channel number) All channel numbers will now be dark

grey. This means that all channels are still within the

system but they have no patch. The patching syntax is

“Dimmer @ Channel”. For example, 2 @ 5 will patch

dimmer 2 to channel 5. (@ will show up as @PATCH). As

you go through and patch, notice that the channel numbers

change from dark grey to cyan. This is the LightPalette

color for a conventional channel that has a patch. Continue

this process until the show is patched.

When you want to edit a cue live that is already recorded,

the first step is to be in the cue. GOTO 1 *: This puts the

cue on stage in a snap count. Now just edit your channel

levels (see Channel Control above) and update the cue.

UPDATE *: This will take all channels whose levels are red

and store their new levels in the current cue.

Where Update is valuable is that it ignores level from subs

and effects.

Now let’s change the time of Cue 1. TIME 3 *: This

changes time on the current cue. To change time on a cue

that is not live just type, CUE 2 TIME 2/5 *: This changes

the time of a non-live cue. The slash key assigned it a split

time. This means that all levels that are going up will fade

in a 2 count. Levels that are going down will fade in a 5.

Channel Check

From the Live or Patch screen, enter DIMMER 1 ON. This

will take dimmer 1 to the ON level. A red flag will appear

on the bottom right hand corner of the screen that says

DIMMERS UNPATCHED. This means a dimmer has been

given a hard level. You can now use NEXT / LAST to

move up / down the dimmer list. This will take the previous

dimmer out and advance to the next/last dimmer. When

you are done with the dimmer check, just press DIMMER

DIMMER to repatch all unpatched dimmers.

To add a label to Cue 1 while in Cue 1, just type TEXT

(CUE 1 TEXT will show up on the command line) and just

enter the label from the keyboard. To label a non-live cue

just type CUE 2 TEXT LIGHTS UP *

{REPORT} [EXIT] [SHUTDOWN] or [EXIT AND RESTART] From the Live screen, you can enter 1 ON. This will take

channel 1 to the ON level. Use NEXT / LAST to advance

up / down the channels that are in your system.

Quick Start

Modes

Preset Modes with Cues

Writing Cues using Preset Modes

Undo Macro

Creating an FX

The 300 series console has the unique ability to change

Modes. Press the MODE key above Playback 1. (That’s

the left set of playbacks.) The softkeys give you the

options. [1 SCENE WITH SUBS], [2 SCENE WITH SUBS],

[1 SCENE NO SUBS], [2 SCENE NO SUBS], [AUTO

MODE], [MANUAL MODE]. The active mode will display

in the middle of the right side of the cue list screen.

Choosing [1 SCENE WITH SUBS] will assign channels to

faders, 1 to 1, for the capacity of the desk, keeping the last

fader panel for submasters. The left slider of the left

playback fader will act as a master for scene 1. When in 1

scene mode, all LEDs above the faders will show in red as

will the appropriate scene master’s LED. If you have a 300

desk with 4 panels (3 fader and 1 channel control) then 2

panels (48 faders) will be dedicated to scene 1 while the

last panel will be dedicated to 24 submasters. Switch this to

[2 SCENE WITH SUBS] and you now have 2 scenes

controlling 24 faders each. (Note: that the appropriate

master must be up to allow faders to output.) The 2 modes

without subs allow the last fader panel to be used for faders

rather than subs. [AUTO FADE] mode is the default of the

desk. This allows the desk to function as a computer

console to store and playback cues. [MAN FADE] mode

allows recording of cues that playback with manual fades.

You can use whatever macro you want but I will

recommend the USER key. To record this macro live, type,

MACRO USER [LEARN] [LEARN] now you get a red flag

that flashes MACRO LEARN to let you know that

everything that you type will now be recorded. Type…

1 THRU 100 UNDO (Remember that 100 should be

replaced with the last channel in your system). Now type

MACRO MACRO to exit the edit mode.

Note: Do not confuse the Macro action button (top right)

with the Macro display key (with the other display keys).

Displaying the FX Playbacks

FX are created and edited in the FX display. {FX}. The FX

list is shown with a blank FX 1. To create a new FX, type

FX 2 * or just press the [EDIT STEPS] softkey to edit steps

for FX 1. To create a simple 4 step FX, there must be 4

steps. Press [APPEND STEP] until all 4 steps are created.

They will appear as “FX.STEP”. (1.1, 1.2, 1.3…and so on).

Use the trackball to highlight the first step and let’s put

channel 1 to full. 1 ON. Trackball down to step 2 and let’s

put channel 2 at full. 2 ON. Repeat this process until all 4

steps have channels 1 thru 4. Let’s go back to {LIVE} and

run the FX. FX 1 FXGO. The FX will now run and the FX’s

channel levels will appear in grey boxes with white text.

This will let you know these levels are coming from an FX.

Many operators want to combine the flexibility of Preset

Modes with the power of Auto Mode. There are a few

simple steps to accomplish this. First, select the Preset

Mode that is preferred. MODE. Then select the appropriate

softkey. Now we need to turn the second playback on so

that you can run cues from Playback 2.

{REPORT} [ADV SETUP] [SHOW SETUP].

The second option from the top left is Playbacks. Choose

Split Single and go back to {LIVE}.

Now Playback 1 will master the preset scenes and

Playback 2’s GO will be used to run cues.

Starting and Stopping FX from Cues

I recommend having the FX Playbacks displayed anytime

FXs are running. Just hold down the SHIFT key and toggle

{LIVE} until you have a screen split with cues and FXs.

Naming Your Show

To have a cue fire an FX, type CUE 1 FX 1 *.

To have a cue stop an FX, type CUE 2 FX – 1 *.

Saving Your Show on the Console

Go to the {ARCHIVE} screen, type TEXT (SHOWTEXT will

appear) and type the name of the show. The name will

appear at the top of the screen.

Writing cues in preset mode is easy. Just advance the

faders to the appropriate levels to set your look. Notice

that all levels are in white. This indicates that levels are

coming from faders rather than channel control. Now

record a cue. RECORD 1 * will record this state as Cue 1.

Notice that all levels are now in cyan. This indicates that

the levels are coming from a cue rather than faders. The

faders won’t function to change these levels until the

channels are no longer controlled by the cue. Just undo all

channels back to fader control with this command.

1 THRU 100 UNDO (where 100 is your highest channel

number). Now all the channel levels are back to white and

consequently controlled by the faders. Just adjust for your

next look and record!

Saving the Show to the Floppy Drive

Go to the {ARCHIVE} screen, press [SAVE SHOW] [SAVE

SHOW] This will save the disk onto the console’s drive

noted by the “LOCAL DISK C:\SHOWS” in the black bar in

the middle of the screen. Look for the new showfile below.

Go to the {ARCHIVE} screen, press [BROWSE FILES>]

trackball down to the A: drive (Note: have disk in drive) and

press *(ENTER) The red flag should now say “Floppy

Drive”, press [BACK] to get the cursor to the top half of the

screen and now you have your softkeys. Press [SAVE

SHOW] [SAVE SHOW]. Watch the progress in the bottom

right hand corner.
