Split — press to select whether or not the mixer’s two layers work independently (in Split
Mode
), in tandem (Mix Mode), or in “Join” mode.
• Mix Mode — the Split Layer button is off. In this mode, the two layers are
ganged together, offering a variety of additional transitions including the toggle,
mix source and swap functions.
• Split Mode — the Split Layer button is on. In this mode, each layer works
independently. You have the freedom to size, position, manipulate and transition
each one independently of the other.
• Join Mode — the Split Layer button is on. The currently blinking layer button is
considered the “master.”
Press and hold the Split Layer button, then press the
other (non-blinking) layer button to “join” the two layers together. Both layer
buttons blink, and in this mode, both are now joined together.
~ Any manipulation that you perform to the “master” layer is also
performed to the joined layer. Both can be sized, positioned, moved and
manipulated as if they are one.
~ To un-join the two layers, press and hold the Split Layer button, then
press either
Layer button.
In Chapter 6, refer to the “
Working with Layers” section on page 226 for details.
