Using chases on Submasters on Fat Frog

[steventaylor78]

Hi

 

I am very confused as to how I can run a programmed show from the cue stack but add chases into scenes manually.

 

Do I program the cues as normal, then put the board into partial mode, and then set up a chase on an unused cue, transer it to a submaster, then raising the sub will in effect add the chase without altering the programmed cue set-up.

 

I haven't ever got to grips with partial mode but willing to give it a go.

 

What I really want is a bank of chases that can be called on in a show when I need them.

 

Hope someone can point me in the right direction.

Hi Steve,

 

What you have described should work fine.

 

Partial Mode just means that instead of recording EVERYTHING, you can just record particular attributes. This then allows you to mix and match submasters - ie having a colour chase on one, figure of 8 on another, and gobo effect on another.

 

Hope this clears things up a bit.
