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

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
