Independent Key
Transitions

Overview

In addition to common transitions, it is possible to
configure independent transitions on the keyers of the M/
E banks and PGM/PST bank. These are called

"independent key transitions."

By carrying out an independent key transition in
combination with a common transition, different transition
types can be used for the background and keys.
If key insertion/removal is set to another mode in the Setup
menu, it is possible to use a different transition type and
transition rate when the key is inserted or removed.
Combining transitions with independent
key transitions
When you set a common transition and a key independent
transition for the same key, you can apply two different
effects, such as a wipe and mix, simultaneously.
When executing such a combination of transitions on the
same key as an auto transition, the transition effect varies
depending on the timing at which the two transition and
independent key transition [AUTO TRANS] buttons are
pressed.
Simultaneous execution
If the [AUTO TRANS] buttons for the transition and
independent key transition are pressed simultaneously, the
following result occurs.
The common transition type is a wipe and the independent
key transition type is a mix.
Removing a key by executing simultaneously: With the
key inserted (on), the key is gradually removed (off)
using each transition type simultaneously.
When the common transition completes, even if the
independent key transition is still not completed, the
two end simultaneously.
Inserting a key by executing simultaneously: With the
key not inserted (off), the key is gradually inserted (on)
using each transition type simultaneously.
All transitions are completed at the point when both
the common transition and independent key transition
are finished.
