Key Frame Duration and Effect Duration

Effect execution times are determined by the effect duration and the key
frame durations.
• A key frame duration is the execution time from a key frame until the next

key frame.

• The effect duration is the total execution time from the first key frame of the
effect to the last key frame.
If you change the effect duration, the key frame durations within the effect
are all automatically changed in proportion.
Key frame number
Setting a key frame duration
The default key frame duration is one second. You can change the duration
of an individual key frame using the following procedure.
1
Press the EDIT ENBL button, turning it on.
2
Stop the effect on the key frame whose duration you wish to change.
3
Press the KF DUR button.
4
Enter the numerical value in seconds and frames (ss.ff) from the numeric
keypad, and press the ENTER button.
For example, enter 9.20 to set a duration of 9 seconds and 20 frames.
Notes
• Key frame durations may change not only by explicit setting as here, but
also if the overall effect duration is changed.
• When a transition executed with the AUTO TRANS button on is inserted in
a key frame, the transition rate setting does not apply to the key frame.
When the key frame is executed, the key frame duration applies to the
transition.
