Stay Playback
The stack, or list, function allows cues and sequences to be programmed and played back in any order against a maximum 99 entries using either the automatic playback, go button or manual crossfader. Each cue uses it's programmed time fade setting for up, down and move fade in addition to a separately programmable dwell, or wait, time setting for automatic playback. To assist with programming, the stack maker function can automatically construct a stack from a user defined start and end point.

Advanced Sequence and Effects Bay.
The chase maker can automatically build a chase pattern using a snapshot of them faders above zero on the preset. Once recorded many different patterns can be created by applying the built in templates such as negative, build, crawl, two on two off, three on three off etcetara, etcetara. to further enhance a chase a various sequence modifiers can be used to change the speed and order of individual steps including wild step, a random step flicker effect; Wild speed, a random speed flicker effect; Audio step, an effect that steps the chase in time to the beat of the music signal input; Audio speed an effect that changes the speed of the chase in synchronisation to the volume of the music signal input; Audio Volume, an effect that recreates a digital VU meter whereby the louder the music signal input the more lights are switched on and fading chase, for subtle transitions from one step to the next using either overlapping or non-over-lapping methods. The chase maker can also construct a pattern to cycle through the colour frames of any colour changer. Chases are assignable to any cue for convenient replay each with their own sped setting recordable between 1 and 1200 BPM.
