Digital Control Section
Fade Time
Fade time settings can be used to create smooth
transitions between recalled scenes. The fade time
specified for a scene is common to all channel and VCA
faders, but you can individually specify the faders to
which the fade time will apply. The procedure for setting
and assigning fade times is described below.
1
To set a fade time engage the ASSIGN MODE
[FADE TIME] switch so that its indicator lights (at
this point the [CUE] switches of input and VCA
master channels currently assigned to fade time
operation will flash).
2
Press the [ENTER] key so that the fade time appears
on the message display to activate the fade time
function. The fade time function can be turned off at
this point by pressing the [CLEAR/EXIT] key so that
“OFF” appears on the display.
3
Engage the [CUE] switches of the input and master
VCA channels to be assigned to the fade time
function so that their indicators flash. Pressing a
flashing [CUE] switch will cause the indicator to go
out and that channel will be unassigned from the fade
time function (it will not be affected by the fade time
setting and the fader setting will change
instantaneously when a scene is recalled).
4
Use the [INC] and/or [DEC] keys to set the fade time
from 0.1 to 60 seconds, as required. The fade time
can be set in 0.1-second increments from 0.1 through
10 seconds, in 0.2-second increments from 10
through 20 seconds, and in 0.5-second increments
from 20 through 60 seconds.
5
When all of the above settings have been made as
required disengage the ASSIGN MODE [FADE
TIME] switch (its indicator will go out). Pressing any
other ASSIGN MODE switch will have the same
effect (the assign mode will change to that of the
newly selected switch).
6
The specified fade time and fader assignments can be
stored in a scene memory as described in the
following section. Please note that if you recall a
different scene before performing the scene store
procedure the fade time settings you have made will
be lost.
10.0
NOTE
When a scene containing a fade time setting is recalled, “FADE”
will appear on the message display while the scene fade is in
progress (unless another message is being displayed at the same
time).
