( PGM bank only ) The Transition LEDs are not affected when the FTB (Fade to
Black) button is used. For example:
~
In the PGM bank, press AUTO TRAN to start an automatic transition,
and then press AUTO TRAN again to pause the transition. The
Transition LEDs are now paused between the limits.

Press FTB . The Transition LEDs remain at their current location.
When M/E is selected on the PGM bus, the entire output of the M/E bank is on
program. This enables you to cut to the M/E — in the same way that you cut
between cameras and other sources.
When M/E is selected on the PST bus, the entire output of the M/E bank is
available on preset. This enables you to preset the M/E, and transition to it — in
the same way that you mix, cut and wipe to cameras and other sources.
Tip In practice, user's will preset the M/E, recall a memory
register to the M/E only, and then transition to the new look.
Once complete, you can transition back to a straight source
on PGM, and free the M/E for the next memory register recall.
When M/E is selected on the KEY bus, the entire output of the M/E bank is
available as a key source. This enables you to create a "look" on the M/E, and
key that look over the PGM source.
On any PGM or BG bus, simply press the button for the desired source. Use the
SHIFT button if required to select a shifted source. Remember that on the PGM
bank, the M/E (re-entry) button can be selected in the same way.
In the Next Transition Group , press BG .
On any PST bus, press the button for the desired "next" source. Use the SHIFT
button if required to select a shifted source. Remember that on the PGM bank,
the M/E (re-entry) button can be preset in the same way.
Press CUT . The source on PST instantly cuts to PGM (or BG ) and the buses flip-
flop.
