Transition Options
Transition Options
The Imagestore 750 has several configuration options that affect how transitions occur and how the
preset buttons and program buttons function.
Some of the differences in behavior are subtle.
The options are identified here by their names in the configuration software. (Some of those names
are cryptic.) These are the options:
• ‘Cut All from Air on Hot PGM Switch’
This option can be enabled or disabled.
When it is enabled, performing a hot cut on the program bus causes all effects (DVEs, XG
keyer layers, DSKs, and voice-overs) to be removed (cut down) from the program bus.
When this option is disabled, a hot cut does not change the effects present on the program bus.
• ‘Re-arm mix on PST bus source change.’
This option can be enabled or disabled.
When it is enabled, selecting a source on the preset bus that is different from the source selected
on the program bus causes the most recently selected transition type to become selected. (It
does not matter why you selected that transition type
—
the option uses the most recently
selected transition type.) Further, if you select a source on the preset bus that is the same as the
source on the program bus, all transition types becomes de-selected.
When this option is disabled, selecting a source on the preset bus has no effect on whatever
transition type is selected or not selected.
• ‘Preview Select’
Normally, this option presents the preset bus at the preset output. (Within the configuration soft-
ware, this output is called either preview or preset.)
It is possible, although not likely, for the Imagestore 750 to be configured to present program
output, the program A/B mixer output, the program DVE output, or the outputs of DSKs 1, 2, or
3 as the preset output.
• ‘Active Preview AB Mixer’
This option can be enabled or disabled.
When it is enabled, the preset (a.k.a. preview) background video depends on both the progress
of the program A/B mixer and its arm state.
When you have not armed the A/B mixer (i.e., have not selected a transition type), the preset
background video is the same as the program video background.
When you select a transition type, the preset background video is what you have chosen as the
preset source, which will be the background video on program after the next transition (or
“Take”).
When the option is disabled, the preset background video is independent of the A/B mixer and
its arm state. The preset background video is always the preset source you have chosen.
• ‘Active Preview DVE’
When this option is activated, if you hot-cut a DVE on the program bus, it will also become
active on the preset bus. And, if you hot-cut a DVE off the program bus, it will also be removed
from the preset bus.
