Features

Many different effect functions incorporated

Along with the standard wipe, mix and cut functions, the switcher can provide size reduction, slide and other DVE transitions.

DVE transitions using the 2-screen push-out effect and other 2-channel functions are possible.

The unit comes with luminance keys and chroma keys provided as keyers as well as specialized hardware in the form of two DSK lines and two PinP lines as a standard option.

AUX1 is equipped with a mix transition function.

This enables MIX transitions with the material selected next, allowing for a flexible system construction.

High-quality chroma keys using Primatte® algorithms

The Primatte® algorithm, which has proven to be very popular in many non-linear editors as a plug-in software, has been put to practical use in a linear editing system for the chroma keys. High chroma key image quality can be achieved through some simple operations.
