ADVANCED TOPICS: See Chapter 17, Advanced Submaster

Operation.

Normal Submaster

A normal submaster has channels at specific levels assigned to it. When these

channels are assigned, they are not "robbed" from any of their other

assignments. The same channel can be assigned a unique level in any number

of submasters. This is because normal submasters operate in what is called a

"Pile-On" mode; for any given channel, the highest level from any submaster

takes precedence.

? EXAMPLE: Let's say channel 21 is assigned to submaster 5 at a

level of 40% and to submaster 6 at a level of 70%. In the Stage display, when

submaster 5 is brought to Full, channel 21 reads at 40%. If submaster 6 is

brought up, channel 21 begins to increase when submaster 6 brings the level

over 40%. When sub 6 finally reaches Full, channel 21 reads at 70%.

You can create submasters in two different ways:

?? "live" with the [RECORD SUB] hard key

?? "blind" in the Submaster display

Record Sub Command

The [RECORD SUB] hard key records the instantaneous "look" of the current

Stage display, by recording all channels at their current levels. This includes

all levels that may be originating from level setting commands, cues, running

effects, or even other subs. The Record Sub command can be executed from

any display. When an effect is running, the Record Sub command captures the

effect channels at the instant the [ENTER] key executes the command.

BASIC RULE: Whenever any of the three dark gray "Record" hard

keys are used, the channel levels that are currently active in the Stage display

are recorded, no matter what display is being viewed when the command is

entered.
