Building Keyer E-MEM Transitions

tered. Plan ahead to the next transition when you create keyframes in an
effect that has multiple background transitions.

1.

Go to the keyframe in the effect where you wish the background
transition to begin.

Note

Adding new transition keyframes to the end of an effect is the easiest way to
build effects containing background transitions, though using this method is
not required.

2.

Select the

Bkgd

next transition button.

3.

Select the type of transition (

Mix

,

Wipe 1

, or

Wipe 2

).

4.

Select the new source to transition to on the B bus.

5.

Press

Modify

to change the keyframe to the values set above.

6.

Perform the transition by moving the lever arm or pressing the

Auto Trans

button. This lets you preview how the transition will look

(though the transition duration used may not match the keyframe
duration specified).

Note

Performing the transition is not required (pressing Cut accomplishes the
same goal, which is to put the switcher into the next desired state). The tran-
sition type button selection and the keyframe duration determines how the
transition will be performed when the effect runs.

7.

If there will be another transition immediately following this one, select
on the B bus the source that will transition to in the next keyframe. This
prevents undesirable background cuts from occurring.

8.

Press

Insert After

to add this keyframe to the effect.

9.

Repeat the steps above for any additional background transitions.

10.

Rewind and run the effect to check its operation. The transitions will
occur as programmed.

11.

After the effect runs properly, you can go back and modify keyframes
with Source Holds where needed.

If unwanted background cuts occur, go to the keyframe where the cut
occurs, identify the source selected on the A bus, go to the previous key-
frame, select that same source on the B bus, and then press

Modify KF

to prop-

erly setup that source in that keyframe for that next transition.

Building Keyer E-MEM Transitions

Individual keyers transition on or off (there is no keyer preset bus). To cross
fade between keys, use two keyers and have one key transition in while the
other transitions out. You can include any combination of keys in a single
