• When a transition uses a combination of more than one
of the background and key 1 to key 8, then the transition
for all of these must be in the same direction complying
with the above table.
• If as a result of an auto transition, for example, the fader
lever position does not agree with the signal output of
each bus, a non-sync state (see page 95) results and
LEDs light/flash at both end positions of the fader lever
travel.

Split Fader

Split fader is a function that splits a single fader lever into
left and right, allowing you to control background A bus
and background B bus transitions independently.
The fader lever on the transition control block (simple
type) is split into two by pressing the lock button to unlock
the two fader levers for use as split faders.
The split fader levers support the following buses. You can
change the settings in the Setup menu.
• Right fader lever: Background A bus (main)
• Left fader lever: Background B bus
The following conditions must be satisfied in order to use
the fader lever as split faders.
• Bus fixed mode is set.
• Split faders are enabled.
• Mix or NAM (non-additive mix) is selected for
transition type.
• If the transition type is a clip transition, Mix or NAM
(non-additive mix) is selected for the background
transition type.
If these conditions are not satisfied, only the main
(background A bus) fader lever can be operated.
For details about split fader settings, see "Setting the Main
Fader Lever" (page 429) and "Enabling/disabling split
faders" (page 469).
