You can recall the stored chase in Chase/Scenes mode. Be sure that:

Chase/Scenes mode is activated (by using the <MODUS SELECT/REC SPEED> button)

{MASTER B} fader is at its lowest position

{SPEED} fader is at its highest position

{FADER} fader is at its highest position

MIX Chase is activated; make this selection with the <PARK> button above the MASTER B
fader, in Chase/Scenes mode. The [MIX CHASE] Led is situated at the top of the FADE fader,
this must be Lit.

Blackout is not activated

Audio is not activated: press/release the <AUDIO> button till the [AUDIO] Led goes out.

All the preset faders (A & B) are set at their lowest position.
Move the {PRESET B 7} fader upwards. The chase will appear on the green Leds (and on your fixtures).
U can also work with the:

{SPEED} fader, the chase speed will be modified

{FADE} fader: the scene will fade into the next scene. If the fade time is set too high, it can be
possible that the lamps will not lit at full level, or maybe the chase will not move anymore.

Manual activation of a Chase
Sometimes it is usefull to activate manually every step in a chase.
This can be done in a very easy way:

{SPEED} fader at its lowest position: SHOW MODE

Press and release the <STEP> button, situated at the top of the speed fader.
Each time that you press the STEP button, the next step of the chase will be activated.

Synchronize a Chase
Very often, when you play music, you want to synchronize the speed of the chase with the beat of the music.
The CMX24 offers you the possibility to press twice on a button, so that the interval time between the two
moments will be used as speed setting for the chase. you can do it like this:
Press twice the <TAP SYNC> button on the beat of the music.
The interval time will be used to set automatically the chase speed. The position of the {SPEED} is not
important.
! As soon as you move the {SPEED} fader, the chase time will be controlled again by this speed fader!

Memorize the speed
When several chases are running, the {SPEED} fader, the <STEP> button and the <TAP SYNC> button will
influence all the chases. Sometimes it is useful to program a fix speed, so that the chase can not be
influenced by the speed fader, the step and tap sync buttons while running.
This can be done in a very easy way:

Set the chase time by using the {SPEED} fader or the <TAP SYNC> button.

Be sure that the {SPEED} fader is not set at its lowest position (SHOW MODUS).

Press and hold the <MODUS SELECT/REC SPEED>

Press and release the <PRESET B x> button of the PRESET B fader where the chase is stored

Release the <MODUS SELECT/REC SPEED> button
The chase speed is now stored in the PRESET B fader, together with the chase.
