Video Slide Control -
The A/B slide controls several transition functions. Moving it between A
and B allows you to fade between sources in the FADE mode. The slide performs A/B wipes in
the WIPE mode and controls the speed of wipes in the AUTO mode. In the KEY mode, the slide
makes color adjustments. Practice using the slide to gain mastery over smooth transitions.
