Playback priority
You can set playbacks to high priority if you do not want them to be
overridden by other playbacks using the same fixtures. For example,
if you have a couple of fixtures acting as a spotlight, but they are also
programmed into some colour washes, you probably want the
spotlight cue to take priority over the colour washes. See section
9.1.6
Manual control during a show (“busking”)
If you have not had as much programming time as you would have
liked, you might need to make up some additional effects during the
show. This is sometimes called “busking”, and is where the fun starts!
You can create instant variations by recalling palette values to modify
You can create instant variations by recalling palette values to modify
your existing cues. The Pearl can fade to the palette values for added
effect.
1> Select some fixtures which are already in use on stage..
2> Type “2” (or any time, in seconds) on the numeric keypad.
4> Press a Palette button to recall a palette.

2> Type “2” (or any time, in seconds) on the numeric keypad.
4> Press a Palette button to recall a palette.
5> The selected fixtures will change to the new palette over a time
of 2 seconds.
When a fade is entered, you can also change the “Fixture Overlap”
using softkey A. This allows you to create “roll” or “peel” effects when
using a series of fixtures. With overlap=100%, all fixtures change at the
same time. If overlap=50%, the second fixture will not start its fade
until the first fixture is half way (50%) through fading. The order of the
fixtures is set by the order in which you selected them.
The fade remains active while the Palette Fade menu is open. Press
Exit to leave the menu to stop fading.
If you apply a palette with a fade time, then it will be overridden by
If you apply a palette with a fade time, then it will be overridden by
the next cue (so if you fade to green using a palette, then fire a cue
which sets those fixtures blue, they will go blue). If you apply a
palette without a fade time, it will go into the programmer and
override any subsequent cues (so if you use a green palette with no
fade, the fixtures will be locked in green until you press Clear).
Having the palette overridden by the next cue is quite useful when
Having the palette overridden by the next cue is quite useful when
“busking”. If you need to “snap” a palette but still have it overridden
by the next cue, set a fade time of 0 (leaving the Palette fade menu
open).
