Fade to black / silence


Pressing the Fade button to the right of the macro buttons will display the
following panel.

Figure 3-13

Fade to black / silence panel


From this panel all keyers can be faded to black and/or all voice-overs to silence.
The rotaries on the right-hand side can be used to define the fade rates for the
keyer and voice-over fades. A fade rate of zero indicates a cut transition. The
button under the Fade label lights up red whenever keyers are faded to black.

Note: Fading to black / silence is considered to be an emergency measure and as a
result these options are not part of the standard arm and take operation. Selecting
these options will immediately fade the keyers to and from black, and the voice-
overs to and from silence.

Arming multiple events on a Take


It is possible to arm any combination of keyers, voice-overs and macros. A
complex transition effect can be created by arming these elements and pressing
the Take button. This means that any arm action on any of these elements will
start simultaneously.
