Chapter 23: Crossfades (Automation)
This chapter shows you how to use crossfades.
Crossfades are events that are triggered using the standard event mechanism, and are
managed via the Automation screen. A crossfade event is managed in a similar way
to any other event, such as GPIO and MIDI, and is detailed later on in this section.
A crossfade event is a trigger to change the value of a control — most often but not
always a fader — between two levels, that of the current control position and that of the
position in another scene, over time. If the level in the next scene is higher than the
current level, the crossfade uses the 'fade up' time; if it is lower, it uses the 'fade down'
time.
About the crossfade Edit Event window
You can edit the parameters of a crossfade event in the Edit Event window. As this
window is event-specific, only the crossfade-specific elements are shown here.
