Independent Key Transitions

What is an independent key transition?
In addition to common transitions, it is possible to carry out 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.
It is also possible to use different transition types for key insertion and key
deletion by means of a Setup menu setting.
For details of this operation, see "Basic Independent Key Transition
Operations" (page 191).
Combining other 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 (dissolve)
(see page 156) to the key simultaneously.
When carrying out such a combination of transitions simultaneously on a key
as auto transitions (see page 181), the result depends on the timing of pressing
the respective [AUTO TRANS] buttons.
Simultaneous execution
If the [AUTO TRANS] buttons for the two transitions are pressed
simultaneously, the following is the result.
Note that in both cases the common transition is a wipe and the independent
key transition is a mix (dissolve).
Deleting a key with simultaneous transitions: With the key inserted, it is

deleted simultaneously with the two transitions.
When the common transition completes, even if the independent key
transition is still not completed, the two end simultaneously.
