There are two modes for carrying out a transition: auto
transitions are carried out by a button operation, and
manual transitions are carried out using the fader lever.
It is also possible to combine both methods, taking
con
trol with the fader lever of an auto transition which has
partly completed, or completing a transition started with
the fader lever as an auto transition.
