Hi All,

This question may have been asked before but I'm having problems with Chase Speed. I don't want the chase to be activated in BPM. I want it to Chase using the Fade Times I have set in the Cue List. I'm sure I read somewhere that if you set the BPM to "0" then the Chase will ignore the BPM and use the fade times. But when I enter "0" in the BPM button as soon as I hit "Enter" it reverts to "1" and if you select "Global BPM" and try and wind the Encoder wheel to "0" it stops at "1". Am I missing something here. Has this feature been removed with the latest update. I am running the latest version and it was the same in the previous version.

This functionality was removed several versions ago. Chases will ignore all cue fade, delay, and auto timings set in a playback.

To use the cue timings rather than BPM, you will need to revert the playback from a chase, and then add "Auto After" triggers to each cue in the playback. Please see the link below for more information...

The playback will then run through the cue timings and loop automatically.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Edward,

Thanks for reply. I had half worked out that this was what I woulld have to do. I have 4 scrollers and I just wanted them to move 1 colour every few minutes just as a colour changing background to a social evening at the Theatre. I'll experiment.
