I believe this has been mentioned before, and in my posts about tracking/timing, but it is really necessary to have the ability to goto a cue (cut) onstage regardless of its defined fade times/parts (as far as parts one should have the ability to goto (cut) any one given part in "solo"). Using the override at maximum rate increase is not quick enough for longer fade times. This functionality could be compared to "quickstep" on an ETC console where timing is ignored (although, quickstep should be improved upon to allow for scrollers to have a defined "quick" time (not 0 counts) while the function is engaged.

 

This maybe where not having that "time" key on the console becomes a problem as how could you differentiate:

 

[memory][6][GO] = memory 6 becomes live onstage in 0 counts (or maybe user defined default "goto" time)

 

vs.

 

[memory][6][time][GO] = memory 6 becomes live on stage in its defined fade times/parts

I'm not sure how this could be achieved using the current front panel controls, but we are looking into timed commands in the next version of the Illusion 500 software :wink:
