Taking Manual Control of a Fade
To take manual control of a crossfade move the fader to match the
elapsed fade percentage. The display changes to show MAN: / 20% (or
whatever fade percentage has elapsed)
The fader can now be moved up or down to control the progress of the
fade. If the level is taken to 100% the fade is completed and the fader
reverts to level control.
To take manual control from the beginning of the cue pull the fader down
to zero (0) before pressing the flash button
Leaving the fade under manual control means that all subsequent cues
will come under manual control when the fade percentage reaches the
fader setting. Thus if XF/Q 1:10 was taken under control after 50% of the
fade time had elapsed it would stay on at 50%. If the fader was left at this
level the next press of GO would cause the next Q to fade to 50% and
XF/Q 1:10 to fade from 50% to 25% (i.e. 50% of 50%.
Fade Times
The default fade time, normally 5 seconds, is set in the SETUP UTIL
menu, all Qs are recorded with this Infade and Outfade time. However
fade times can be changed for each Q by using the EDIT XF menu.
