Your first show with the suite

One show, from the rider to the next city. A card lists the ten steps in the order a crew lives a show. Each step belongs to one app, and it ticks by itself when you do the work there. You enter nothing extra.

Where the card is

Every app that carries the card shows the same list. The step for the app you are in is marked. The other steps link to their apps.

• load·in: open the show sheet from the show name in the header. The card is the last group.
• green·room: under the date bar on Today.
• show·call: on the Cues tab.
• gain·stage: at the top of Invoices.
• carnet: at the top of Command.

The card is never a pop-up. Tap its title to fold it, or the cross to dismiss it on this device. When all ten steps are done it folds to one line.

The ten steps

1. Rider in (load·in). Read the rider or open a desk file. The channels land in the List. See Getting Started and Console Import.
2. Show built (load·in). Give the show a venue and a date.
3. Desk file out (load·in). Choose your desk and export its file. See Console Export.
4. Times set (change·over). Add the acts and their times. See change·over.
5. Day sheet saved (green·room). Save a show day with its venue and events. See green·room.
6. Crew joined (green·room). Add the crew to the show.
7. Cues built (show·call). Build the cue list. See show·call.
8. Show called (show·call). Run the cues with GO.
9. Settled (gain·stage). Invoice the show. The venue and date are already filled in. See gain·stage.
10. Next city (carnet). Add the next show on the tour. See carnet.

back·line has no step of its own. It builds the pull sheet for the gear. See back·line.

How a step ticks

A step ticks from what the apps already save, so there is nothing to tap.

• Rider in ticks when the show has channels.
• Show built ticks when load·in holds a show with a venue and a date.
• Desk file out ticks when a desk file has been delivered. A DAW template does not count.
• Times set ticks when change·over holds one of your own shows with an act that has a start time. The sample show does not count.
• Day sheet saved ticks when green·room saves a show day with a venue.
• Crew joined ticks when the show has a crew list.
• Cues built ticks when a cue list has at least one cue.
• Show called ticks the first time you press GO with a cue in the list.
• Settled ticks when you create an invoice in gain·stage.
• Next city ticks when carnet holds your shows in two different cities. The sample tour does not count.

A tick stays. Deleting the show later does not untick it.
