Grass Valley Kayenne XL Package v.7.0.4 - Manual (Page 35)

Kayenne XL Package — User Manual 33
Mix/Effects (M/E) Stage
The Kayak HD system M/E actually has four keyers, each handling a fill
and a key signal, and it can accept three background sources (A, B, and
Utility). Providing individual source selection rows for each bus is imprac-
tical, as the panel would become too large. For ease of use, Kayenne XL
Package panels have alternate buses accessed by delegation, using Key and
PVW/AUX delegation via the Miscellaneous Bus selection subpanels.
Utility Bus
Besides the standard A and B background inputs, each Kayenne XL
Package also accepts two Utility inputs. The Utility buses can be used to
select signals for special purposes, and have no relation to the background
buses. For example, a video signal selected on the Utility bus can be used
to feed a custom pattern into a wipe generator, or create a custom border
wash pattern.
Effects Send
Effects Send provides a method of integrating digital effects devices into
the M/E. Effects Send switches the key cut and key fill outputs of the keyer
of the M/E to a digital effects device for manipulation. The manipulated
key cut and key fill outputs are then received and sent directly to the inputs
of the mixer circuits of the M/E. Effects Send enable you to process a key
effect as though the digital effects circuits were located inside the M/E
itself.
On the Kayak HD system, Effects Send is integrated into the M/E and is an
extension of the keying control system.

If the system is equipped with the optional Digital Picture Manipulator
option, the effects become part of the internal M/E’s mixer.
