Once on this page, you can adjust the default timings for cues and MiB as needed.

Snap Value​

The Snap Value is set as a percentage relative to a cue's fade time and is used for functions marked as "Snap" in the fixture type library. These functions will instantly snap to their new value once the threshold set by the snap value is reached.

For example:

  • If the cue time is set to 2 seconds and the Snap Value is set to 50%, any function marked as "Snap" (such as a color wheel) will jump to the new value after 1 second.
  • If the snap value is set to 25% in the same scenario, the snap will occur after 0.5 seconds. To adjust the Snap Value, use the On-Screen slider at the top of the page.
