To Perform a Transition

All transitions, with the exception of cuts on the background or key bus, have the same basic setup. To perform a transition, you must select what sources you want to transition on what buses, and how you want the transition to appear.

  1. Click Navigation Menu > Live Assist > Buses and select the MiniME™ or MultiScreen that you want to perform a transition on.
    Tip: You can also select sources from the Canvas tab (Click Navigation Menu > Live Assist > Canvas) by clicking Trans > Background or Preset and selecting a source, or Key X > Key Fill and selecting the source.
  2. Select the bus and the source that you want to take on-air on that bus.

    For a background transition you must select the source you want to transition to on the preset bus.

  3. Click Canvas.
    Tip: If you want to perform a transition on a MiniME™, click MiniME instead.
  4. Click the Canvas X button for the MultiScreen that you want to perform the transition on.
  5. Click Trans.
  6. In the Next Transition area, select the elements (Background and Key X) you want to include in the next transition.
  7. Click Trans Rate and enter the length of the background transition in the Trans Rate field, or the length of a key transition in the Key X Rate field.
  8. Select the type of transition you want to perform.
  9. Click Trans Settings and click a Roll Clip button to select whether you want any GPI outputs assigned to a source being taken on-air to trigger with the transition (On), or not (Off).
  10. Perform the transition.
    • Auto Trans — click Auto Trans
    • Cut — click Cut
    If a pre-delay has been set, the switcher will apply the pre-delay interval before performing the transition.
