Transition Controls and Operation
Using Custom Transitions
Having previously defined your custom transitions using the Configura-
tion Manager, you select a custom transition type as you would a standard
transition type. For example, if you set up a custom transition for Button
Type
Custom2 , selecting the Mix transition button on the MMCP invokes that
custom transition.
Transition Rates
The transition rate is established by the parameters set up in the Custom Tran-
sition Configuration form. All of the Transition Rate buttons will low tally to
indicate that a custom transition is selected.
When a custom transition is active, and a Take transition occurs, the three
Transition Rate buttons tally off to indicate that the take is in progress.
Transition Rate Button Tally
The Transition Rate buttons (all three) display low tally when a custom tran-
sition is selected and active on the MMCP.
Matte Duration
Any matte duration times are considered part of the New video.
When using SqueezeBack with matte transitions, the matte is disabled.
Changing from Custom to Standard Transition Types
To revert to standard transition types from Custom Transition types, do the
following:
1. In Configuration Manager, click on the Custom Transition button on the
MCP form.
2. In the Custom Transition form, uncheck the Enable Custom Transition check
box for each Button Type that was customized.
3. Download the named configuration to the FCM.
Transition Interrupts
When custom transitions are selected and active, you can only make a hot
cut on the Program bus.
Transition Logging Tool
The Transition Logging Tool will accommodate custom transition types.
Custom transitions types may be logged with the Transition Logging Tool,
similar to the standard transition types.
