Playlist & Live

[Laserbasi]

Hi everyone,

I'm new to BEYOND Essential and have a couple of questions.

I'd like to play multiple shows one after another. From what I've seen, this should be possible using the Playlist, but I'm not sure how to set it up correctly.

I was able to add the shows to the playlist, but I can't seem to get the music to work. Am I missing a step, or is there a specific way to add or link the audio files?

I also have another question regarding Live. I'd like to create a simple horizontal line effect with four scanners that opens and closes (I assume this is done using the Zoom parameter). However, I'd like the scanners to open sequentially rather than all at the same time—for example, scanner 1 first, then 2, then 3, then 4, each with a slight delay. What's the best way to achieve this in BEYOND Essential?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

For audio: You need to open the shows on the timeline. Make sure the audio works in the timeline. Then save the show and load it in the playlist. This way BEYOND knows there it can read the audio files from. Shows from the content cloud by default come without audio.

Regarding live: You will need advanced or better for shifts between zones, so its probably easier to put something on the timeline and use that for output.
