Once the "Fade" function has been selected, we can setup the fade times. Please keep in mind
that the channels can have their levels increasing (Fade In) or decreasing (Fade Out):
- Time before fade In : Time between the call of the scene and the beginning of the Fade In
- Time of Fade In : Fade In time
- Time before fade Out : Time between the call of the scene and the beginning of the Fade Out
- Time of Fade Out : Fade Out time
Here, we can leave the default settings which are 5 seconds for the Fade In/Out times and no time
before Fade In/Out. We can click on OK when it is finished and our first scene is now ready to be used.
Let us create the 2nd one and call it "Scene 2". To do so, we release all the buttons in our page (double
click on INIT) and we call the "Scene 1". Then we use the TAKE buttons to setup a different position for
each fixture and we save the scene with the "As you see now function". Now we just have to setup the
Fade times (as we did with the 1st one) and we are ready to fade from our "Scene 1" to our "Scene 2".
When a fade is running, the following window appears and shows you the FADE IN (left, red)
and the FADE OUT (right, blue). This window allows to make a break, to increase the speed of the
fade, to jump to the end of the fade or to go back to the beginning. Please note that you can make this
window visible or not by clicking on "Fade" from the "Windows" menu.
