E-MEM Transitions
Transitions can be built into E-MEM resisters. Recalling and running these
E-MEMs will make the transitions occur as programmed. The lengths of
transitions in effects is determined by keyframe duration, not the transition
duration used for manual transitions. When you build effects with transi-
tions, keep the E-MEM transition rules in mind, which are different from
the rules used for manual transitions. The beginning and ending states of
the buses and transition elements must be set properly.
Though background and keyer transitions are described here as separate
procedures, effects can easily be built that include both background and
key transitions in the same keyframe by selecting the appropriate next tran-
sition element buttons.
E-MEM Transition Rules
Key Priority Transitions interpolate wipes and mixes as part of an E-MEM.
Note
When creating a priority transition that will interpolate as part of an E-MEM,
it will only transition correctly if the ‘Next’ Priority Stack on the initial key-
frame is set to match the ‘Current’ Priority Stack of the subsequent keyframe.
•
A background transition will occur only when the
Bkgd
next transition
element is selected on the initial keyframe AND the source selected on
the B bus of the initial keyframe matches the source selected on the A
bus of the following keyframe.
Note
The decision to perform a background transition is based on keyframe
values, regardless of the state of Bus or Source Holds. If a Hold is active you
will not be able to tell by looking at the currently selected sources whether a
background transition will occur.
•
A keyer transition will occur only when the
Key 1-6
background transi-
tion element(s) for the keyers involved are selected on the initial key-
frame AND a keyer changes its on/off state at the following keyframe.
•
If Effects Dissolve is on, when an effect is recalled transitions will occur
between the previous switcher state and the first keyframe of the effect,
following the rules above. If Effects Dissolve is off effect recalls will cut
to the first keyframe of the effect.
Building Background E-MEM Transitions
When building background transitions make sure the A and B background
bus selections are consistent through out the effect. Otherwise the back-
ground video may cut to different sources when keyframes are encoun-
