If the number of saved pages is 1 (“FRAME” is set to 1),
the video is saved as a still picture. If the number of saved
pages is 2 or more (“FRRAME” is set to 2 or more), the
video is saved as a movie. Both a still picture and a movie can be saved in internal memory. In this case, however, the total of saved pages must be equal to or less than the maximum number of frames.
For example, if the memory size (the number of frames) assigned for internal video is set to 4 in the [MEMORY]
submenu of the [SETUP] menu, four still pictures can
be saved in memory when a still picture (FRAME: 1) is
created; only one movie can be saved in memory when a
movie consisting of four pages (FRAME: 4) is created.

page 20).

Program Preset Transition

Program preset transition is an effect of switching from
program video (base video) to preset video (video used as an effect), and vice versa.
It is executed in the same method as described in “AB Transition” except for setting [TYPE] to [PRG/PRE] in Step
1. The ONE WAY button is disabled because it limits the
switching direction only from preset video to program video
(the button ashes when pressed).
NOTE
During program preset transition, the buses are switched to each other every time transition is carried out. This state of bus switching can be checked with lighting and flashing of the ME PVW button. When the buses are in the same state as the initialization, the ME PVW button is lighted. When transition is carried out once and the bus source is switched to the other, the ME PVW
button flashes.

Keying

Keying is a combining effect of adding source video B as a “key” to source video A, and vice versa.
The keying methods included the basic pattern key
(
page Vol.2-5), chroma key ( page Vol.2-6) , luminance
key ( page Vol.2-7), and title key ( page Vol.2-8).
The following diagram shows an example of the basic
pattern key.
The maximum value that can be set is [33:09f] (1080/59i, 720/59p, 480/59i) or [39:24 for the time display form “seconds+frames” and [00999 for the time display form “frames.”
NOTE
Even if a value exceeding the maximum value is selected, the maximum value is automatically set.
Press the ME setting button to turn on.

There are some patterns for which the position • cannot be adjusted with the joystick. For more information, refer to “List of Key Patterns” at the back of Volume 2. For the patterns registered as direct patterns, the • settings of the effects and position applied to each pattern are saved in memory and applied when the pattern is called next time (if [MODE] in the [SETUP] menu is set to [PRESET]). Any settings made for the patterns not registered as direct patterns are not saved in memory.
To use the Scene Grabber function
Press the SCENE GRABBER button to turn on.
The scene grabber function allows you to move the image
currently being displayed in the key together with the pattern if a specic key pattern is selected.
For patterns to which the Scene Grabber function can
be applied, refer to “List of Key Patterns” at the back of
Volume 2.
NOTE
You cannot use multi-strobe effects ( page Vol.2-15) and the scene grabber function at the same time. Whichever is selected later has priority and the other selected earlier is canceled.
To display the key inverted
Press the REVERSE button in the PATTERN area to turn on, and the key pattern or frame-in/-out is displayed inverted.

Downstream Key (DSK)

DSK is an effect of inserting a key to the video to which
effects have already been applied.
Set the pattern size (key size) using the rotary
6
Z control.
If a specic key pattern is selected. press the
ASPECT button to turn on, and the aspect ratio of the pattern can be temporarily changed with
the ASPECT control. (When it is turned in the H direction, the width (horizontal) is increased; when it is turned in the V direction, the height (vertical) is increased). When the button is turned off, the aspect
ratio returns to the value before change.
For patterns to which the aspect change function
can be applied, refer to “List of Key Patterns” at the back of Volume 2.
Set the transition time (from combining start to
7
end) ( page 35).
Slide the transition lever to the B side (or A

side) or press the AUTO TAKE button.
When the AUTO TAKE button is pressed, it is lighted
and source video A is combined with B (or source
video B is combined with A).
The following diagram shows an example of the DSK.
To create DSK using material imported from PC
Input material such as characters created with a single
color as a background on PC to the DVI-I IN connector, select the DVI-I input as key material for DSK (set [KEY] to [DVI-I] in the [DSK SOURCE] submenu of the [DSK FADE] menu), and you can insert a key onto video created by applying effects to an image taken with a camera. It is also possible to embed other material as the key ll in the key extracted from the original material or apply effects such as SHADOW to the extracted key.
