In other words, ‘what you see is what you will get’ – after performing the next Take or Auto operation as
currently configured. This lets you set up the next shot, check its composition (including titles and overlay
positioning), and switch to it with sublime confidence.
M/E P REVIEW AND P ROGRAM
As mentioned earlier, monitor viewports can also be assigned to display the output of M/E s. Among other
things, this means you can freely assign a monitor as a secondary ‘program output monitor’ in cases where
you are using an M/E to supply an auxiliary program mix for independent display. Viewports can be assigned
to specific M/Es , or follow the delegate status ( Outputs >Follow>M/E Program ).
FIGURE 130
Complementing this feature, NewTek live production systems provide Look Ahead Preview monitoring
capability for M/Es as well (Figure 130). The Viewport Options menu group Follow lists a special M/E Preview
option for this purpose.
Hint: All viewports assigned as M/E Previews show output from the same M/E. Making an M/E delegate
selection updates all viewports when Tabs Follow all Delegates is enabled.
Just like the main Look Ahead Preview , the M/E Preview respects Delegate selections made in the Transition
section of the assigned M/E , showing you the display that will result from the currently configured ( M/E )
Take/Auto operation.
