Just a quick thank you Mike for all the good work you have done on SCS.

I am currently mid run of a Panto here in the UK. Due to typical bad planning, I ended up having to program the cues, by reading a few pages ahead in the script during the dress rehearsal. By being able to have the editor page open I could jump between the two screens, firing cues when needed, then going back to continue editing.

Without SCS, the whole excersise would have been a nightmare as changes were being made to the sound plot almost on a scene by scene basis.

Many thanks for an excellent product.

Joe,

Wow - that sounds fun...!

I presume you already had the sound files present?

Fortunately I don't do the sound on the nights, I do the Visuals (inc Camera recording), although I do them for rehearsals. It takes me approx one month to program SCS because they change or get fine-tuned so often!

Our Panto (UK) starts 10th Feb, and we're running out of time...

I like a challenge :shock:

I had most of the files that I needed on my laptop, which was handy, although there were a couple of moments where I just stuck a handy wav file in as a placeholder. Raised an eyebrow or two when a turkey suddenly made an appearance in the middle of Sleeping Beauty.

Where in the UK are you based? Always good to know where another SCS user is - safety in numbers :D
