TRANSITION SECTION
The most obvious component of the Transition section is the
T-Bar
, which works just like the one
in the software version. LC-11 also provides some other buttons and knobs that do not have
exact equivalents in the onscreen display, as discussed next.

3.3.1
FADE AND FX
Pressing the
Fade
button selects the standard CrossFade transition (found in the first well of each
Transition bank of both VT[5] and TriCaster systems). Note that pressing Fade only
selects
the
CrossFade – it does not
perform
the transition between video sources (you still need press
Auto
to do that).
The
FX
button re-selects the last transition selected other than a CrossFade, cueing it up for the
next
Auto
between sources.
3.3.2
SPEED AND FX
Just beneath the
Fade
and
FX
buttons are two
knobs
labeled
SPEED
and
FX
. These knobs each
have two distinct functions – one associated with rotation and the other accessed by pressing
the knob (just like a button). The knobs have rotational detents to provide confidence while
making adjustments.
Rotating the
SPEED
button modifies the duration of the
Transition
effect. Pressing it cycles
through the preset speeds (
Slow
,
Medium
and
Fast)
.
