Cut
A cut switches instantaneously from the current video to the new video. When
the next transition is a key transition, the key cuts in or out instantaneously.
Executing a Transition
There are two modes of executing a transition: an auto transition by button
operation or a manual transition using the fader lever.
It is also possible to combine both methods, taking control with the fader lever
of an auto transition which has partly completed, or complete a transition
started with the fader lever as an auto transition.
By combining common transitions with independent key transitions, different
transition types can be applied to the background and keys, for example
allowing a key wipe combined with a background dissolve. (See “Executing a
Transition” (page 187).)
Auto transitions
Cut
A cut switches instantaneously from the current video to the new video. When
the next transition is a key transition, the key cuts in or out instantaneously.
Auto transition
The transition from the current video to the new video is carried out
automatically at a constant rate, using the transition effect selected as the
transition type.
You can set the transition rate in advance. (See “Setting the Transition Rate”
(page 188).)
Manual transitions
Using the fader lever, you can manually control the progress of the transition.
Moving the fader lever from one end of its travel to the other completes the
transition.
Flip-flop mode and bus fixed mode
The following describes the difference between flip-flop mode and bus fixed
mode, taking the M/E bank as an example; the functionality is the same,
however, on the PGM/PST bank.
Normally, when a background transition is carried out on the M/E bank, the
signals selected on the A and B rows of cross-point buttons are interchanged at
the end of the transition. That is to say, except during a transition, the
