Transition Preview mode works regardless of whether the MLE is on
air or not. This mode is highly recommended for previewing complete
effects, and in fact, is
critically important for previewing DVE SEND
effects.
Note It is recommended that you wait until the preview monitor displays the
MLE program output before proceeding to the next step.
