Setting a Fade Time 191

Setting a Fade Time

Using the Fade Time function, crossfades, fade outs, and fade ins from 0 to 25 seconds can be performed automatically by recalling mix scenes. Fade Time settings must be stored with a mix scene before they have any effect. Faders for input channels 1 through 16, the effects returns, aux send masters, bus out masters, and the stereo output can be enabled for fading individually.

1. Use the [MEMORY] button to locate MEMORY page 2, as shown below.

2.Use the cursor buttons to select the TIME control, and the PARAMETER wheel or [–1/DEC] and [+1/INC] buttons to set it.

The Fade Time can be set from 0 to 25 seconds in 0.1 second steps.

3.Use the cursor buttons to select the FADE ENABLE switches, and the [ENTER] button to enable channels for fading.

FADE ENABLE switches appear highlighted when channels are enabled for fading.

4.Store the current mix scene in a scene memory. See “Storing Mix Scenes” on page 186 for more information.

Note: The Fade Time settings must be stored with a mix scene before they have any effect.

5.Recall the mix scene. See “Recalling Mix Scenes” on page 187 for more information.

When the mix scene is recalled, enabled faders move to their new positions over the specified time. With a 5-second fade time, for example, it takes the enabled faders 5 sec- onds to reach their new positions. In a typical crossfade, one channel would fade out while another channel fades in.
