Custom Control (Macro) Timing Adjustment

Hello all,

I am trying to change the timing of a macro I built, but I cant figure out how to do so. Any help with extending a DVE Param shift time would be greatly appreciated!

See attached pic.

Thanks,

Hi Zachary,

May I clarify that you would like to set the DVE X-position at 0%, wait a predefined amount of time while ME2 transitions, and then set the DVE X-position at 36.2%?

To achieve this, insert a PAUSE event after the ME2 transition event.

Custom Control > Pause > Set desired duration for the pause

Thanks for the reply, Aaron. I would love to see the transition happen live (The key shifting from left to right smoothly over 2 seconds).

Would you happen to know if that is possible?

Hi Zachary,

I think I understand now - you would like to animate the transition. Yes, this is possible!

So the animation will be achieved using Memories. Then the memories can be inserted into a Custom Control if you would like the animation to be a part of a larger sequence of events.

You will need to create 2 different memories: one with DVE param at 0%, one with DVE param at 36.2%

Set Recall mode to Effects Dissolve; and Effects Dissolve duration to 2 seconds

Since our focus here is the DVE key, turn on key attributes for the relevant key

Save the 2 memories.

Now when you recall and toggle between the 2 memories, the switcher will interpolate the 2 different DVE parameters over 2 seconds.

For a better understanding of memories, look at these 2 links.

The Carbonite U video (first link) is admittedly getting old, with an old color scheme and layout for the UI, but the concept still holds.

I got it to work, Aaron!! Thank you SO much for your assistance!
