Using the Fade function

“Fade” is a function that smoothly changes the faders of specified channels and DCA groups

to their new values over a specified duration when you recall a scene. The settings of the Fade

function are made independently for each scene.

NOTE

• Scenes for which the Fade settings are made are marked by a “FADE” indicator in the STATUS

field of the SCENE LIST window (COMMENT tab).

• The Fade function settings can be applied individually even if faders are linked by Channel Link.

• You can stop a fade effect by holding down a [SEL] key while you stop the corresponding moving

fader.

• If you recall the same scene while faders are moving, the faders of all channels or DCA groups

will move immediately to their target positions.
