Run mode features
Chapter 20. Run mode features
Before we continue with the run mode features, please make sure that you have programmed some
sequences, background scenes and playback scenes. You need at least 5 of each to properly follow
examples in this chapter.
20.1 Sequence transparency across cues.
When you are putting sequences behind cue buttons you have to keep in mind that Xciter has sequence
transparency. When there is no sequence in the next cue to take over the sequence in the current cue, the
sequence from the current cue will keep running. But you can still deactivate it.

Launch cue2:
•
There is no sequence in layer A; SEQ1 from cue1 will keep running.
•

•
SEQ4 replaces SEQ3 from cue1 because they are both on layer D.
•
