MX-4 DV USER GUIDE CHAPTER 5
52
TIP
During production planning, determine which transitions you want to use, then set up the User
category to contain those transitions. This gives you quick, immediate access to the transitions
without having to search through the other categories. See the following section (“Changing User
Transitions Menu”) to learn how to tailor the menu to your preferences.
CHANGING USER TRANSITIONS MENU
The first time you power up the MX-4 DV and press the USER Transitions Category button, the
default transitions appear in the menu. The default set contains a variety of transitions from the
other four categories, as defined by FOCUS Enhancements at the factory. If you are satisfied with
the default set, there is no need to change them.
The
USER category does not contain distinct transitions – that is, all transitions in the USER
category actually exist in other categories (basic, edges, shapes, and misc.). Think of the
USER
category as a collection of references to other transitions.
You can change as many transitions in the
USER menu as you want.
To change a transition in the User menu:
1 Decide which transition you want to add to the
USER category. Refer to Appendix A, Transi-
tions List, for a list of valid numbers and their associated transitions.
2 If necessary, press
DISPLAY to set the Preview screen to Standard or Two Channel mode.
In the other Preview modes (Full, Current, or Next), the MX-4 DV does not display the Transi-
tions Menu. Refer to “Display” beginning on page 73.
3 Press the
USER Transition Category button to display the menu on the Preview screen.
4 Use the
ARROW keys to highlight the transition you want to replace in the USER category.
5 Enter the number of the transition you selected in step 1, above. You can enter the number of
any transition from any category.
6 Press
OK.
Restoring Default
User Transitions
You can easily restore the default set of transitions in the User category. NOTE: By pressing #+
OK
you can also set a transition in the User menu.
To restore the default set of transition to the User menu:
1 If necessary, press the
USER Transition Category button to display that menu on the Preview
screen.
2 Enter
SHIFT+0 (zero). This restores the default set of transitions for this category.
