Soundcraft Launches Broadway Offline Editor and Version 3 SoftwareSep 25, 2000 Soundcraft has announced the simultaneous launch of the Broadway Offline Editor and Version 3 of the Broadway Main System Software. The Broadway Offline Editor software is a stand-alone software package for the PC. The OLE offers creation and editing of Cue Lists including naming and assignment of Input and Output channels, VCAs and MIDI Events in a familiar environment, making offline advance programming for a large show, or adaptation of existing shows, a fast and simple process. The Offline Editor will read and edit existing Broadway projects or create new projects from scratch. All "Intelligent Cue List" features from the Broadway touchscreen have been implemented, including Rippling of assignments (automatic copying of parameters through the show) and Replay Scope functions. New to the Offline Editor, however, is the concept of Channel "Families"-- any channel may be given up to four "Family" names. This information may then be used to assist in VCA assignments on the desk, as the operator can simply enter a family as the VCA Master name, and all members of that Family will be assigned automatically to that VCA Master. but also offers extensive crossfade capabilities. Manually executed or timed fades are now available with programmable switch points for non-level functions, and automatic sequences of cues may now be created, with user-defined follow-on times between cues. The Offset Group feature has also been enhanced. Allowing automatic tracking of manual changes throughout the show, once a show is complete, these temporary changes, or "offsets", may be discarded or written to selected channels in user-defined cues as required. Broadway consoles have recently been installed in Hong Kong, at the Academy of Performing Arts, and in Barcelona, at the Liceu Opera House.
