Selecting and Displaying SqueezeBack Effects

To select a SqueezeBack effect:

1.

Press and hold the

Mode/Function

button.

2.

Press the

SQB

button located in the bottom left of the User subpanel. The

next SqueezeBack effect will be selected and displayed.

3.

Release

SQB

and then press again to view the next effect.

The SqueezeBack effect must be showing on the LAP monitor (that is,
selected and active), and must not be on-air.

Releasing the

Mode/Function

button exits the SqueezeBack effect selection.

The tally of the

SQB

button does not change. Releasing the

SQB

button

causes no change of tally if it was pushed while the

Mode/Function

button

was held down.

Making SqueezeBack Transitions

The SqueezeBack effect can be cut on/off-air, just like a key. The

SQB

button

is toggle action, if it currently tallies high (selected and active) or low
(selected and not active), on the next press and release it will tally off (dese-
lected).

1.

Press the

Next Transition Key

button so that it tallies high.

2.

Select SqueezeBack by pressing and releasing the

SQB

button.

3.

If SqueezeBack is selected and active, the next transition will cause the
SqueezeBack effect to transition to air (if not currently on-air), or to be
removed (if currently on-air). When a transition occurs:

a.

If the transition type is

Take

, the SqueezeBack transition occurs in a

three-frame transition.

b.

For any other transition type, the Squeeze-back transition occurs at
the rate selected by the

Transition Rate

.

4.

Deselect SqueezeBack by pressing and releasing the

SQB

button.

SqueezeBack can occur simultaneously with background and key transi-
tions. If the SqueezeBack background signal becomes non-sync or is
dropped, the result is similar to keys becoming non-sync. SqueezeBack
tallies to off, any SqueezeBack effect on Program or Preset immediately
removes that effect.
