To invert a mask signal

In the Key >M/E Key1 >Mask menu, press [Mask Invert], turning it on.

To transform a mask pattern

In the Key >M/E Key1 >Mask menu, press one of the following buttons, depending on how you want to transform the pattern.

For details about operation, see the sections on effect transformations (on the pages indicated in parentheses).

Position: Change the mask pattern position (page 63).

Aspect: Change the mask pattern aspect ratio (page 95).

Rotation: Rotate the mask pattern to a specified angle (page 95). Note that the parameter Magnitude is not available for masks.

Multi: Arrange several examples of the same mask pattern (page 96). When using a mask, operate in the same way as “For a PGM/PST wipe.”

Using the Show Key Function

Show key is a function to output, for a specified time, key- processed B&W signals from Edit PVW output.

Make a setup setting (with the Key menu) to enable and disable the show key function, and to set the length of the output time.

For details, see “Making show key settings” (page 174).

To output show key signals

In the key >M/E Key1 >Main menu, press [Show Key], turning it on.

Show key signals are output when the button lights. Output ends after the specified hold time.

You can stop show key output by pressing [Show Key] during the output.

Using Key Memory

The key memory function allows the keyer settings on each cross-point button to be automatically stored, so that the next time the same cross-point button is selected these settings are recalled automatically.

Key memory operating modes

There are two key memory operating modes: simple mode and full mode. Make a setup setting to select one of the modes.

The parameters stored differ as shown below, according to the operating mode.

Parameters stored in simple mode

•Key type

•Key inversion (Key Invert)

•Adjustment settings for the particular key type

-Luminance key and linear key: Clip, Gain, Density, and Filter settings, clean mode on and off.

-Chroma key: Settings excluding color cancel, Y balance, foreground video process, window, and shadow.

-Pattern key: Size, Soft, Density

Parameters stored in full mode

All key settings, except for transitions

On how to turn the key memory function on or off and select the key memory operating mode, see “Selecting the key memory operating mode” (page 173).

To recall settings stored in key memory

When the key memory function on, stored settings are recalled automatically at the same time that key signals are selected.
