Clip Transitions

You can play a frame memory clip linked to a background
transition, such as a mix or wipe.
Only eight channels comprising FM1 to FM8 (FM1&2
Clip, FM3&4 Clip, FM5&6 Clip, FM7&8 Clip) can be
used in a clip transition.
Clip transition restrictions
• Pattern limits cannot be used.
• Transition preview cannot be used.
• It is not possible to set the transition rate of a clip
transition.
• Keyframe capture is not possible.
• The state of a clip transition during execution cannot be
saved as a snapshot.
• When recalling a snapshot that includes a clip transition
while executing another clip transition, the subsequent
transition does not operate properly. Recall the snapshot
after the transition completes.
• Transitions executed in two strokes, such as a preset
color mix with the stroke mode set to [Normal], or a
DME wipe with a picture-in-picture pattern, will not
execute correctly.
Notes
• In 4K format, only four channels comprising FM1 to
FM4 (FM1&2 Clip, FM3&4 Clip) can be used.
• When a clip transition is selected as the transition type,
the wipe direction selection button in the transition
control block that is lit indicates the direction of clip
playback.
