Freeze Examples
This section discusses some common uses for the Freeze function. As you use MXPro
over time, you’ll probably create many others ways to use this function.
Single Source (A/A)
Editing
When working with a single source, use the Freeze function to transition to or from the
second image.
To use Freeze with Single Source Editing:
1 Route a video source to Channel A.
2 Use the CUT/A and NEXT/A buttons to specify source A as both the Current and
Next source.
3 Press FREEZE to freeze the Current source.
MXPro freezes the Current source on the Program monitor, and the Next source
(on the Preview monitor) continues moving even though there is only one source.
4 Enter 1+PLAY to run a simple dissolve transition. The frozen image dissolves to
moving video.
5 Press NEXT/A to release the freeze on the Next source.
If you want, repeat steps 3 through 5 to freeze and dissolve back and forth.
The following steps explain how to transition from moving video to a still image.
6 Enter SHIFT+4 to select Preview Next mode on the Preview monitor.
7 Enter SHIFT+FREEZE to create a still frame on the Next source.
8 Enter 1+PLAY to dissolve from the Current moving video to the Next still image.
9 Press FREEZE to release the freeze on the Current source.
