Video Operations
Switching the Video Automatically (Auto Switching)
The video of INPUT 1–10 or of preset memories (p. 48) can be switched automatically (the auto switching function).
You can make operation easier by letting the video switch automatically.
About the Operation Mode
Auto switching provides three operation modes that you can select
as appropriate for your situation: “input scan,” “preset memory scan,”
and “BPM sync.”
Switching at a specified interval (Input scan)
This automatically switches the INPUT 1–10 video when a specified
length of time elapses. You can change the duration that each video
is shown, and also switch randomly between videos.
This is convenient when you want to switch between video signals
of multiple cameras, for example when live-streaming a singer-
instrumentalist.
* If there is no video input, this is skipped.
Switching preset memories (Preset memory scan)
This automatically recalls between preset memories 1–30. The video
and audio are switched according to the settings that are saved in
each preset memory.
* Preset memories in which no settings have been saved are skipped.
Switching in synchronization with the BPM (BPM sync)
This automatically switches the video at specified BPM intervals.
This lets you create video transitions that are synchronized with
the music, for example when live-streaming a DJ performance or a
musical performance.
