the SmartMatriX² 10 sources and called back at the press of a single buon. To use a frame, be sure rst that
it is well saved, then:

When transioning sll layers, depending on how many scalers are in use, the SmartMatriX² TAKE funcon
will act in one of 2 dierent ways when transioning the next preset (Preview) to the current preset (Pro-
gram):
- TAKE
• All sll frames make an opening and closing phase.
• All sources of the same layer are completely dierent between the current preset and the next preset. The
opening and closing eects of the layer are set to Cut.
- TAKE
• One of the layer makes a change of source which is not in Cut.
• The opening and closing phases can be done with dierent eects.
• The sll frame appears and disappears of the layer with the following eects: Cut, Fade, Slide or Wipe.

8.2.14 Frames as layer

eect, Smooth move and Status.
Those sengs have to be used as layer sengs. Press frame buon to have access to the layer menu sengs.
You can change frame or delete frame on the Preview screen using the same way the layers do:
