Transition Chaining
Key Chaining Across MEs
As shown in Figure 144 (in blue), in the Chain 1 parameter data pad, the fol-
lowing multiple ME key chain has been created:
• PGM/PST, Key 1,
• ME3 Key 1, and
• ME1 Key1
Figure 144. Key Chaining Menu—Multiple ME Key Chaining
Selecting a keyer in the Next-Transition section of the Control Panel will
make that keyer the initiator. On the MEs with keyers in the chain, their
next-transition selections will be erased and the keyers in the chain
selected. These keyers will flash to indicate that they are in the chain. The
key which is not flashing is the initiator.
You can also use the Cut/Auto keys as described in Using Key Cut/Auto
Buttons
on page 263 . If a Cut button is pressed on the initiating ME, then all
the MEs with chained keyers, cut. If an Auto button is pressed, then simi-
larly, all MEs with chained keyers shall perform the same transition at the
same rate.
Other non-chained keys or other transition elements can be added to the
next-transition at this time. Key chains can be established with keys both in
the same and different MEs.
