NAM (non-additive mix)

In this dissolve, the current video and new video signals are compared, and the signal with the higher luminance level is given priority in the output. The current video is maintained at 100% output for the first half of the transition as the new video increases progressively to 100%, then the current video is progressively reduced from 100% to zero in the second half with the new video maintained at 100% output.

Note

This transition type is not available for an independent key transition.

Super mix

In this dissolve, the current video is maintained at 100% output for the first half of the transition as the new video is mixed while increasing progressively to 100%, then the current video is progressively reduced from 100% to zero in the second half with the new video maintained at 100% output.

Note that you can set the output levels of the current and new video signals at the mid-point of the transition, in the range 0 to 100%. (See “Super Mix Settings” (page 349).)

Note

This transition type is not available for an independent key transition.

Preset color mix

This is a two-stage dissolve, comprising two transitions, the first a dissolve to a color matte, and the second from the color matte to the new video.

In the first transition, the current video is replaced by the color matte in a mix (dissolve), then in the second transition the color matte is replaced by the new video also in a mix (dissolve). You can specify the color matte by luminance, saturation, and hue values. (See “Color Matte Settings” (page 350).)

Also, in place of a color matte you can use an image selected on the utility 2 bus.

Notes

•This transition type is not available for an independent key transition.

•In the multi-program mode, you can use a preset color mix only when selecting the background for the next transition.

One-stroke mode and one-time mode

•You can make a setting such that a preset color mix is carried out in a single transition. This is called “one-stroke mode.”
