Switching Images in Synchronization with Music
(BPM Sync)
You can make images switch in synchronization with the beat of music. This causes the images to switch automatically
without your having to operate the video fader or the [TRANSFORMER] buttons.
You can specify the switching timing as a specified BPM (Beats Per Minute) or as the interval at which you press the [TAP]
button.
Here’s how to specify a BPM (Beats Per Minute) setting at which the image will change each beat.
1
Set the [MEMORY] knob to memory number 1.
* The factory preset settings are assigned to memory number 1. For details on
the [MEMORY] knob, refer to “Storing the Operating Panel Settings” (p. 28).
2
Use the bus A and bus B INPUT SELECT buttons to select the desired input images.
Input different images to bus A and bus B.
3
Turn the [BPM/CONTROL] knob to specify the BPM.
The current BPM is shown in the BPM display.
Decreasing the BPM value will slow down the timing at which the images change. Increasing the BPM value will speed
up the timing at which the images will change. You can adjust the BPM in a range of 20–240.
* If you’ve selected “003: Fam
✽
” or “005: Nam
✽
” as the transition effect applied by a TRANSITION button, the FAM/
NAM cross point level (p. 37) will blink in the BPM display. Turning the [BPM/CONTROL] knob will adjust the cross
point level. If you want to change the BPM, use the [TAP] button (p. 61).
4
Press the [BPM SYNC] button.
The [BPM SYNC] button will light, and the images will switch automatically at the specified BPM. If you want to change
the timing at which the images switch, turn the [BPM/CONTROL] knob to adjust the BPM value.
The transition effect selected by the TRANSITION buttons will be applied when the images are switched.
Switching Images at a Specified BPM
BPM display
• You can use BPM Sync to turn an effect on/off in synchronization with the beat of the music. In this case, input the same
image to bus A and bus B, and then apply the effect. The effect will switch on/off at the timing that the image switches
between bus A and bus B.
• When using BPM Sync, you can make the transition effect be a cut, or make the transition occur at a multiple of the
displayed BPM interval. For details, refer to “Changing the Settings of the [BPM SYNC] Button” (p. 62).
• If you use BPM Sync or the [TRANSFORMER] buttons (p. 40) to switch images automatically, there will be situations in
which the position of the video fader will not match the actual output. If you set the “Utility” menu item “Video Fader Mode”
to “Quick,” the output will change to match the fader position when you move the video fader slightly (p. 78).
