¶ Adding and Deleting Cues
In this example, we will add a new song between Song 3 (cue 6) and Meet and Greet (cue 7)
- Program the look that you want
- Press Store, type in 6.1, press Please
- Putting the ".1" in the cue number will insert it between cues 6 & 7
- Tap "OK" to create the new cue
Similar to copying a cue described above, however we will substitute the second cue number for a new one
- Press Copy, type in the existing cue number, press AT, type in the new cue number
- Using the above as an example, the command line should show: "Copy cue 6 at cue 6.1"
- Press Please and tap "Copy" to create the new cue
In this example, we will delete the cue we created in the above steps
- Press Del and type in the cue number you wish to delete (i.e. 6.1)
- Press Please and the cue should be deleted
- If you get a pop-up window just press "OK"
