CHAPTER 8

Global Control: Transitions

When the global Transition channel has a DMX value = 0, Image A is visible at full intensity. When the Transition channel is at a DMX value = 255 (100%), only Image B is visible. As the DMX value of the Transition channel is increased from 0% to 100%, the layer intensities change and color mix from Image A to Image B in a smooth fade.

Transition DMX = 128

Transition DMX = 255

Fade Through Black

Transition Mode DMX value = 69

Fade Through Black is another opacity transition. In this case, the intensity of Image A decreases to black and then Image B intensity increases from black to full. When the global Transition channel has a DMX value = 0 -127% only Image A is visible. At DMX values from 128 - 255 (100%), only Image B is visible.

Image A intensity decreases from full at a DMX value of 0% to a minimum intensity at a DMX value of 126 (49%). The image will be solid black at a DMX value of 127 (50%). Values above the midpoint increase Image B intensity from minimum at a DMX value of 128 to full intensity at a DMX value of 255 (100%).
