SCS 10.3: Sub-Cues don't show up in Cues to be Actioned
Posted: Thu Dec 11, 2008 1:53 am
I noticed this on the last show I did, which was under 10.2, and it's persisting in 10.3. I looked around in the forums, but didn't see anyone asking about this (unless I didn't use the right search terms).
I've noticed that sounds I trigger as sub-cues do not show up in the Cues to be Actioned area of later cues (either regular or sub-cues) when I want to stop them, fade them out, release them from looping, etc. Cues that were trigged as regular cues, however, do.
This is making it very difficult for me to work around the auto-start problem I posted about the other day. Right now, the only way I can program this show is if I have to trigger every cue manually, and that would be very problematic, especially with regard to timing. I have some cues that, when triggered, trigger of a number of other cues and I would have to trigger them all off manually in rapid succession.
I know this problem did not occur under earlier versions of the software, so maybe I am missing something. Thoughts on that?
Also, can I force SCS to recognize these sub-cues by editing the .scs file and inserting the right data? If so, what would the code be? I'm sure it's different than if it were a standard manual cue.
I just want to get this resolved. The show we're about to do is our biggest, most prestigious opportunity to date (performing at Boston's Orpheum Theatre on New Year's Eve!) and I really want things to go smoothly.
Thanks!
