Main Features ●
Eight channels of video input
The V-8 provides video input connectors for eight video (composite) channels and four S-video channels. Of the
input channels 1–8, S-video input is available only for channels 5–8.
* If S-video and video (composite) are both input to a channel 5–7, the input from the S-video connector will take priority and
will be selected automatically. Likewise, if S-video and RGB signals from a computer are both input to channel 8, the S-video
will take priority.
●
Computer input jacks with built-in scan converters
A built-in scan converter supports RGB signals (VGA to UXGA) from a computer. The incoming RGB signal is
converted to a video signal. By key-compositing a computer screen with a video image, you can use this as a titler.
* There are two computer input connectors. A switch on the operating panel allows one of the two to be selected.
●
Two independent frame synchronizers
Even if an unstable video signal is input, the internal frame synchronizer can correct the synchronization signal.
This allows you to use a variety of video without worrying about noise caused by unstable synchronization signals.
●
Monitor out connectors for eight channels
An independent monitor out connector is provided for each video input channel 1–8.
* If both S-video and video (composite) signals are being input to channels 5–7, or if both an S-video signal and a computer
output signal are being input to channel 8, the input from the S-video connector will take priority, and will be sent from monitor
out. The input signal from the computer will also be sent from monitor out as a video signal.
●
High-quality digital effects
Digitally processed effects are built in. You can apply a variety of high-quality effects including Picture In Picture,
Mirror, Multi, Feedback, and Afterimage. In addition to the familiar Mix and Wipe transitions, new transitions such
as FAM (Full Additive Mix), NAM (Non-Additive Mix), Slide, and Stretch are also provided.
●
Simple and customizable operation
Switching between video sources and mixing them is easy. The T-bar type video fader can be attached in either
a horizontal or vertical orientation according to your preference. Sliders are used for effect controllers, allowing
you to operate the V-8 like a DJ mixer.
●
Synchronize with music
By pressing the TAP button in time with the beat of the music, you can switch images or control effects in
synchronization with the tempo (BPM).
●
Control via MIDI
MIDI connectors (IN, OUT/THRU) are provided, allowing you to switch images or control effects by controlling the
V-8 from an external MIDI device. You can also control an external device from the V-8.
In addition, the V-8 can be used in conjunction with V-LINK compatible audio/video equipment to easily create
video output that is linked with the expressive elements of a performance.
