Clip Transition Operations

A frame memory clip (movie) is played back, linked to a transition using a mix
(dissolve) or wipe.

The following restrictions apply to the use of a clip transition.
• Key frame capture is not possible.
• It is not possible to apply a pattern limit.
• Transitions executed in two strokes, such as a preset color mix with the

stroke mode set to Normal, or a DME wipe with a picture-in-picture pattern,
will not execute correctly.

• It is not possible to vary the transition rate of a clip transition.
• Transition preview cannot be used.
• No instantaneous state of a clip transition can be saved as a snapshot.
• When recalling a snapshot including a clip transition during executing

another clip transition, the follow-on transition does not operate properly. Be
sure to complete the transition before recalling a snapshot.

Note

When a clip transition is selected as the transition type, if one of the wipe
direction selection buttons in the transition control block is lit, it indicates the
direction of clip playback.

Setting a clip transition

The following example describes the case of a clip transition using FM 1&2
Clip on the M/E-1 bank.

Note

To use a clip transition effectively, the image from the frame memory clip
being played back during the clip transition should be seen in the M/E-1
program output. For example, inserting a key using frame memory output 1 and
frame memory output 2.

1

Display the M/E-1 >Misc >Transition menu, and in the
group select “FM1&2 Clip.”

2

Press [Clip Transition].

The Clip Transition menu appears.
