Using the V-4 in Presentation mode

Switching to Presentation mode

To switch from Normal mode to Presentation mode, turn off the power of the V-4. Then hold down channel A input select buttons 1 and 4, and press the power button.

Once you switch to Presentation mode, that setting will be preserved. The next time you start up the V-4, you can simply press the power button and the V-4 will start up in Presentation mode. If you want to start up in Normal mode, hold down the channel A input select buttons 1 and 4 while you press the power button.

The function of the input selector

Presentation mode assumes that you will be combining two screens. Use the channel A input selector to switch the background image. When you switch the background image in Presentation mode, the currently selected transition effect will automatically be applied.

Use the channel B input selector to switch the image of the secondary screen, the screen overlays on background.

The function of the BPM/CONTROL dial

Use the BPM/CONTROL dial to set the duration of the transition effect. If this dial is set to the far left, the transition effect will have a duration of 0 seconds. If set to the far right, the transition effect will have a duration of 4 seconds.
