Using the Fade function
“Fade” is a function that smoothly changes fader and pan to their new values over a specified duration when you recall a
scene. The settings of the Fade function are made independently for each scene.
1In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, press the
[SCENE] key several times to access the FADE
TIME screen shown below.
In this screen you can select the channels that will use
the Fade function, and specify the fade time and start
offset time.
2In the upper left of the screen, click the FAD-
ING ENABLED/DISABLED button to select
ENABLED.
When the FADING ENABLED/DISABLED button is
set to ENABLED, the Fade function will be enabled for
the faders in the current scene.
3In the upper right of the screen, make sure
that the FADE TIME button is on.
The FADE TIME/START OFFSET buttons in the
upper right of the screen select the parameter that will
be edited in the lower part of the FADE TIME screen.
When this button is on, you can specify the fade time
(the time over which fader and pan parameters will
reach their new value) for each channel.
4In the rows of buttons at the bottom of the
screen, click to turn on the buttons of the
channels for which you want to enable the
Fade function.
By clicking the SET ALL buttons located at the right of
the screen, you can turn on the buttons of all input
channels and all DCA groups, or the buttons of all out-
put channels.
By clicking the CLEAR ALL buttons located at the right
of the screen, you can turn off the buttons of all input
channels and all DCA groups, or the buttons of all out-
put channels.
5Move the cursor to the box located immedi-
ately below each button, and turn the [DATA]
encoder to specify the fade time for that chan-
nel. (Alternatively, click the / buttons at
the left and right of the box.)
Hint
If the numerical value is displayed in light blue when you per-
form the above actions, this indicates that an offset time has
been specified for the corresponding channel.
6In the same way, specify the fade time for
other channels as well.
If desired, you can easily copy the fade time setting of a
channel to another channel (➥ p.185).
7In the upper right of the screen, click the
START OFFSET button to turn it on.
When the START OFFSET button is on, you can spec-
ify an offset time for each channel (the time from when
the scene is recalled until the fader or pan parameter
begins to change).
8As you did in steps 4–6, specify an offset time
for each channel.
9If you want to enable the Fade function not
only for faders but also for the PAN (BAL-
ANCE) parameters of input channels, set the
INPUT CH PANNING ENABLED/DISABLED but-
ton (located in the upper middle of the
screen) to ENABLED.
The FADING ENABLED/DISABLED button and
INPUT CH PANNING ENABLED/DISABLED button
can be set independently. Use the following two but-
tons to select the input channels to which this will
apply.
• When the ALL INPUT button is on
The Fade function will apply to the pan (balance)
parameter of all input channels.
• When the SAME AS FADING button is on
The Fade function will apply to the pan (balance)
parameters of only the input channels selected in step
4.
10 When you have finished making settings,
store the scene.
The settings in the FADE TIME screen are saved
independently for each scene. The Fade function will
apply when you recall a scene for which this button
is set to ENABLED. After recall, the fader and pan
(balance) parameter values will begin changing when
the specified Start Offset Time has elapsed, and will
reach their new values over the specified Fade Time.
