Tony shows an alternative method for creating a cue list in Vista, focusing on the “Store Part” function. He demonstrates how to efficiently store cues, customize timing settings, and manage cue contents. This is a streamlined approach to building and organizing cue lists.

Creating a Cue List with Store Part

The "Store Part" function offers an intuitive way to create and manage cue lists, catering to various programming styles.
  • Starting a Cue: Begin by selecting fixtures, adjusting their intensity, and setting a color, such as blue. Once satisfied, use "Store Part" to save the configuration.
  • Accessing Store Part: Press the "Store Part" button or F5 to open the store part menu, providing a convenient interface for storing cues.

Customizing Cue Timings

Adjust cue timings to create smooth transitions and dynamic lighting effects.
  • Timing Presets: Use the timing dropdown to access and manage timing presets, or create custom timings for specific parameters.
  • Setting Custom Timings: Define individual timings for intensity, position, color, gobo, and beam, such as a two-second fade for intensity.

Managing Cue Contents

Control which fixtures and settings are included in each cue for precise programming.
  • Contents Area: Decide whether to store all fixtures or only selected ones in the cue, ensuring desired elements are included.
  • Filtering Options: Filter out unnecessary information (e.g., gobo, zoom) to focus on key elements like color and intensity.
