72.2.2.55 Router/MC

Select and set the transition type (cut, v-fade, etc) to be used between events, being also possible to lock the transition. Available transitions include:

•Cut: This transition allows to add a Cut between events.

•Mix: This transition adds a Crossed fading.

•V-Fade: Use this transition to add a Cue and Head fading.

•Bumper: This transition (available only for timecode events) adds a blank video file to the event cue, as a Cut transition. When a Bumper transition is used, the duration of the Bumper file is added to the event duration, therefore the event in question will have mark-in and mark-out as inserted in the asset, but the duration will be extended with the bumper file duration.

Is possible to set a custom Bumper duration in:

Etere Configuration > Settings > Schedule Parameters > Automation > Bumper Duration

ml_bumper

bumper_duration

•Take and fade: Use this transition to add a Final cut and Starting fade.

•Fade and take: This transition adds a Final fade and Starting cut.

•Forward wipe: This transition adds an Explosion.

•Reverse wipe: This transition adds an Implosion.

•Squeeze: This transition squeezes (scales down) and expands (scales up) the event horizontally or vertically,

•Bump Fade: Use this transition to add blank video to the event cue and then a Final fade.

•Fade Bump: Use this transition to add a Starting fade and then blank video to the event cue.
Moreover, depending on the selected transition, it will be possible to customize it by setting the following parameters:

- Wipe pattern: Set the code of the pattern type (e.g. top to bottom, left to right, etc) to be used to Explode (forward wipe) and Implode (forward wipe) effects,

- Color: Set the background color of the transition,

- Volume: Set the volume (0-12) to be set while the transition takes place.

- Transition Speed: Enter here the duration of the transition manually or select a standard duration (i.e. slow, medium or fast). The maximum duration allowed for transitions is 3 seconds and 24 frames (i.e. 0000:03.24).

NB: Please note that transitions take place only if the two events are on two different Master Control inputs and if the transition has been enabled as for the second event.
