v2.0 Stable
New Features
Theatre Mode
QuickQ v2.0 introduces Theatre Mode. This turns Playback 1
into a theatre
cue stack, Playback 2
becomes a manual crossfader for the cue stack on
Playback 1
. In Theatre Mode lowering a Playback
to 0% does not
automatically release the cue stack. If a light’s intensity is at 0% in a cue
then it will automatically be moved into position ready for the next cue. New
cues recorded while in Theatre Mode will have a default fade time of 3s.
To turn on Theatre Mode click on Settings
in the menu then select Theatre
Mode
.
Default Palettes.
On the QuickQ console setting all the faders to 0 and pressing Clear
will return
all fixtures to their default positions. The default positions are stored in
the first palette in each Attribute window. To change the default values simply
record some new values into the first palette, which is labelled as Default
.
