Mix The new video progressively
fades in over the current
video. The sum of the two
video outputs is maintained
at a constant, with the output
of each at 50% at the mid-
point of the transition (i.e.,
when the fader lever is in the
center position).
Selectable
NAM (non-
additive
mix)
The current video and new
video signals are compared,
and the signal with the
higher luminance level is
given priority in the output.
The signals are compared at
the mid-point of the
transition when both signals
are at 100%, at which point
the signal with the higher
luminance level is output.
Not selectable
Super mix The current video is
maintained at 100% output
for the first half of the
transition as the new video
is mixed while increasing
progressively to 100% at the
mid point of the transition.
Not selectable
Preset
color mix
A color matte (unpatterned
display) is inserted during
the transition where the
current video is switched to
the new video in a two-stage
transition.
Not selectable
Wipe A wipe switches from the
current video to the new
video using a predetermined
pattern.
Selectable
DME wipe The current video switches
to the new video, similar to a
wipe, using a DME effect.
Selectable
Clip

Plays back a frame memory
clip (movie) linked to a mix
or wipe transition.
Not selectable

instantaneously replaces the
current video.
