Key Chaining on a Single ME

As shown in

Figure 143

(in blue), in the Chain parameter data pads, the fol-

lowing three key chains have been created for ME 1:

Chain 1—Keys 1 and 2,

Chain 2—Keys 3 and 4, and

Chain 3—Keys 5 and 6.

Figure 143. Key Chaining Menu—Single ME Key Chaining

Selecting keyers in the Next-Transition section of the Control Panel will
make those keyers initiators for the transition. Key Chaining causes the
chained (controlled) keyers to be selected as well. These chained keyers will
flash to indicate they are in the chain. The keys which do not flash are the
initiators. When the Lever Arm is moved, or the

Auto

button is pressed, the

keys transition together.

If a selection is made for a keyer in the primary partition, and the chained
controlled key is in the secondary partition, the controlled keyers will tran-
sition simultaneously with the keys in the primary partition, irrespective of
the delegation of the

Sec

button (Source Select area). The same is true for

selections made in the secondary partition with controlled keys in the pri-
mary; they always delegate whether or not the

Pri

button (Source Select

area) is delegated. This behavior corresponds to the tally of the next-transi-
tion buttons. The blinking tally indicates that the keys will transition.
