DME: This applies a wipe-like transition, using the DME effect selected in the DME Wipe menu.

FM1&2ClIP, FM3&4ClIP, FM5&6ClIP, FM7&8ClIP: A recorded clip is played back together with the transition. At this point, you can also carry out a background transition (wipe or mix (dissolve)) simultaneously together with the clip.

bKey transition selection buttons To insert or delete key 1 on the next transition, hold down the [KEY1] button, and select the type of transition using the transition type selection buttons. If the key is currently not inserted, the transition will insert it, and if the key is currently inserted, the transition will delete it. You can use the [KEY2] button in a similar way.

While these buttons are held down, you can select a key source with the cross-point buttons on the key bus.

Pressing one of these buttons twice in rapid succession changes the state of the corresponding key bus so that a cross-point can be selected.

cTransition execution section

Fader lever: Move this vertically to carry out a transition.

When the split fader function is enabled, by pressing the projection on the left side of the grip you can release the lock and separate the two halves of the fader lever. With the split fader

Transition indicator: This comprises multiple LEDs, which show the progress of the transition.

Transition rate display: This displays the transition rate (the time from the beginning of the transition to its completion) set for an auto transition, in frames.

You can set the transition rate using the numeric keypad control block or menu.

TAKE button: Pressing this button carries out an auto transition of the set transition rate. The transition starts immediately, and the button lights amber. When the transition completes, the button goes off.

dWipe direction selection buttons

REV (reverse): When this button is off, the wipe proceeds in the normal direction. When the button is lit, the wipe proceeds in the reverse direction.

The normal direction refers to the black to white direction or in the direction of the arrow as shown in “Wipe Pattern List” (page 560) and “DME Wipe Pattern List” (page 566) in Appendix (Volume 1).

NORM/REV (normal/reverse): The wipe direction alternates between normal and reverse every time a transition is executed.
