Using the AUTO TRANS button
To execute the effect automatically at the preset transition time, press the
AUTO TRANS button, turning it on.
To pause the transition
During the transition, press the AUTO TRANS button, turning it off.
Note
If the fader lever is in an intermediate position, then the transition pauses
at the corresponding position. To make sure the transition does not pause,
first move the fader lever to either end of its travel.
To resume the transition
Press the AUTO TRANS button again.
Using the fader lever and AUTO TRANS button together
You can use the AUTO TRANS button to complete a transition started and
paused with the fader lever, or in the opposite way, use the fader lever to
complete a transition started and paused with the AUTO TRANS button.
• If you resume a transition partially executed with the fader lever, using
the AUTO TRANS button, then the transition time taken is in proportion
to the setting for the entire transition. For example, if the transition time
is set to 100 frames, and you carry out the equivalent of 25 frames with
the fader lever, then press the AUTO TRANS button, the remainder of
the transition will take 75 frames.
• If you partially execute the transition with the AUTO TRANS button,
then start moving the fader lever, the transition resumes when the fader
lever reaches the corresponding intermediate position.
Note
When you carry out an auto transition by controlling the processor unit
from an external editor through the EDITOR connector, then regardless of
the fader lever position, the transition is executed in its entirety.
