There are two modes for carrying out a transition: auto
transitions are carried out by a button operation, and
manual transitions are carried out using the fader lever. It
is also possible to combine these two modes.
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.
By carrying out an independent key transition in
combination with a common transition, different transition
types can be used for the background and keys.
The following compares the independent key transition
with a common transition, taking a simultaneous change of
the background and key as an example.
