Transition Type Buttons
The type of transition at the next transition is determined by the
 
WIPE
,
 MIX
, and
 PRESET BLACK 
buttons.
The
 WIPE
 and
 MIX
 buttons are mutually exclusive; pressing one 
selects it and de-selects the other.
A
 WIPE
 transition uses the output of the wipe generator to shape 
the selected transition(s). Your selected wipe pattern appears over 
the old video/key and moves across the screen, revealing the new 
video/key as it moves. Use either the 
lever arm
 or the 
AUTO TRANs
 
button to perform the
 WIPE
 transition.
Pressing
 MIX
 selects a transition that mixes video, keys or 
backgrounds, during the change from one source to the other. A 
mix transition gradually fades the new video and/or key over the 
old video and/or key. You can use either the 
lever arm
 or
 AUTO 
TRANs
 button to perform a
 MIX
 transition.
Pressing the
 PRESET BLACK
 button selects a two-stage transition 
that inserts black between the two video sources being mixed, 
wiped, or cut. For example, instead of mixing directly between the 
A Background and B Background buses during a background 
transition, a preset black transition mixes, wipes, or cuts from the 
A Background bus to black. When a second transition is 
performed, black mixes, wipes, or cuts, away to the B 
Background. After completion of the two transitions,
 PRESET 
BLACK 
turns itself off automatically.
In addition to this automatic cancellation, you can toggle
 PRESET 
BLACK
 on and off manually. If you turn off
 PRESET BLACK
 while 
the transition is on the black limit, the M/E output will 
immediately switch from black to the original signal. If you turn 
off
 PRESET BLACK
 when it is off limit, the transition to or from 
black will stop.
