Setting The Independent Key Transition Rate - Sony MVS-8000X SystemMVS-7000X System User Manual

Setting the Independent Key
Transition Rate
There are two ways of setting the transition rate: using the
Flexi Pad control block, Multifunction Flexi Pad control
block or numeric keypad control block to enter a numeric
value, or using the Key menu to access the Transition
menu for the M/E or PGM/PST bank.
You can also display the transition rate, independent key
transition rate, and fade-to-black transition rate for each of
the M/E and PGM/PST banks, and change the settings (see
page 234).
When the setup selection is for separate transition rates for
inserting or deleting a key, you can set both rates
independently. For example, with the system in the state
with the key not inserted, the transition rate setting applies
to key insertion.
