Hold Audio Transition

Pressing Hold (H) will hold the audio transition when the next template is called. Viz Mosart will wait to do the audio mixer fader change until a new Take Next command is issued when the hold audio transition is active.

In a situation where you have CAM 1 in program and a clip (PACKAGE) in preview and use the Take Next with Hold audio transition active Viz Mosart will do all transitions one would expect between the two templates except the audio mixer fader change. Viz Mosart will change the cross point on the vision mixer to the PACKAGE element. It will start to play the video on the assigned video port, and all secondary items with an in-time will use the Take Next as the relative starting point.

The Viz Mosart GUI Program window will notify the user that the audio transition is on hold and that the user need to send a new Take Next to do the audio mixer fader change. This functionality can also be toggled to be auto-taken in a template or by a keyboard shortcut key.

Keep Sound

CTRL+K (default) or clicking the button in the GUI will activate Keep sound levels. This will keep the currently active audio faders and their levels until deactivated with another CTRL+K (default) press. All audio fader configurations in story commands will be ignored as long as the keep sound mode is active.

Manual Fade Sound

The Manual fade sound mode will allow the operator to start an audio fade prior to the F12 to next element or after the F12 to the next element.

To enable manual fading for the sound of the current story element, activate the Manual fade sound mode by using CTRL+M (default) or clicking the relevant indicator button.

The current on air set of audio faders will be kept open through the next story until they are faded using CTRL+F (default), while the faders connected with templates in the next story are added to and subtracted from them. To disable the Manual fade sound without fading, press CTRL+M (default) again. The duration of the fade is set as a global value in the AV Automation settings.

Fade Sound

CTRL+F (default) will fade all open faders set to keep in the Template Editor.

Level 1 and Level 2

Each Viz Mosart template can be configured with three audio level setups for the complete set of audio faders defined in the template, two of which can be accessed from the GUI. Level 1 is set as default in a template, while level 3 is the fader’s base On level (normally Out equals In). It can be modified from the AV Automation application.

CTRL+L (default) will toggle level 2 for all faders in the template cued in preview. Level 2 will be used when the previewed element is taken on air with F12.

SHIFT+CTRL+L (default) will immediately use level 2 for all faders in the template currently on air.
