Name
This field is the preset’s name. It is for your convenience to provide a descriptive label on what
the preset’s purpose may be.
Fade Time
A preset’s Fade Time is the amount of time it takes to crossfade to a new scene when this preset
is activated.
To use the default fade time, the check mark should be not checked.
To use a custom fade time for the preset, the check mark should be checked.
In the text field, enter the fade time along with choosing the desired units (Seconds, Minutes or
Hours) from the popup menu. Any amount of time from 0.01 seconds up to 24 hours may be
specified.
To cause a preset to appear immediately (with no fade time), specify a fade time of zero (0).
SceneStation also supports “Split Fade Times”. A Split Fade Time is actually two fade times,
one time that is used for channels that are increasing in value and another time used for channels
that are decreasing in value. This feature can allow a preset to appear quickly while the previous
preset appears to fade out slowly. Other special effects can be created using this technique.
To enter a Split Fade Time, put two times in the field, separated by a slash ( “/” ). For example:
In this example, when the preset is activated, the channels coming in will fade up in 1.5 seconds,
while the channels from the previous preset will fade out in 5 seconds.
