Transition type Description
Mix The new image progressively 
fad
es in over the current image. 
The sum of the two image outputs 
is maintained constant, and the 
output of each is at 50% at the 
mid-point of the transition.
NAM (non-additive 
mi
x)
The current image and new image 
are compared, and the image with 
the higher luminance level is given 
priority in the output. The output of 
each is at 100% at the mid-point of 
the transition.
Super mix The current image output is held at 
100
%, and is mixed with the new 
image. The output at the mid-point 
of the transition can be 0% to 
100%.
Preset color mix A color matte (plain image) is 
ins
erted during the transition, 
where the current image is 
switched to the new image in a 
two-stage transition.
Wipe The current image switches to the 
new
 image using a wipe pattern.
DME wipe The current image switches to the 
n
ew image using a DME wipe 
pattern.
Clip transition Plays back frame memory video 
co
ntent linked to a mix or wipe 
transition.
Cut The current image switches 
ins
tantaneously to the new image.
