Internal / SMPTE / MIDI timecode cuelists all work in the same way - the only difference is the clock source. ie: Internal / SMPTE / MIDIOriginally Posted by Sergey
So when the timecode runs, the cues will trigger when the timecode hits the same time as the cue is programmed.
Internal timecode allows you to generate timecode to run the cuelist.
Internal-relative uses the same internal timecode, but the cues behave slightly differntly - more like a cuestack on a lighting console. i.e you would press GO to advance to the next cue.
Most cues in an 'internal-relative' cuelist might be set to pause/wait - so that you can advance to the next cue using the space bar or play button.
A follow on cue would be given a wait time to automatically follwo the previous cue - (see picture example)
-press space to run cue 1
-press space to run cue 2
-the 3rd cue runs automatically 5s after q2
-press space to run cue 4
-press space to run fade at end
If you dont see the clock run for "Clock: Midi Time Code 1"
Check that your MIDI device drivers are correctly installed and that you have selected the correct external MIDI device at the bottom of the Catalyst Control window.
With reference to manuals etc - the built-in manual is out-of date. You need to discuss this with the software developer.
However the cuelist secion hasn't changed for a few years - so should be accurate.
There is a slightly more up-to-date online manual.
take a look at:

its less out of date - Some features have been updated
But it should cover enough of the basics, until you figure out that you don't really need a manual...
As you are based in Moscow, you should contact:
Ivan Rumyantsev
ivanr@sim.ru
I believe that he has a Russian manual available and should be able to offer local support.
