6 At the end of the transition, sources selected on the program and preview buses are
exchanged to indicate that the video source that was on preview is now on program
and vice versa.
Each transition type has its own independent transition rate allowing the operator to
perform faster transitions by simply selecting the transition type and pressing the AUTO
button. The previously used transition rate is remembered for that transition type until it
is changed.
A production switcher provides multiple methods of transitioning from one shot to another.
Generally, you use a simple cut transition to move from one background source to another.
Mix, dip, wipe and DVE transitions allow you to transition between two background sources
by gradually phasing out one and phasing in another. Stinger and Graphic Wipe are special
transitions which will be covered in a later section. Mix, dip, wipe and DVE transitions are
performed as an auto transition or manual transition using the transition control block.
Mix Transitions
A mix is a gradual transition from one source to another and is achieved by interpolating
gradually between two sources, effectively overlapping the sources for the duration of the
effect. The length of the transition or length of the overlap can be adjusted by changing
the mix rate.
