Split Layered Mode
There are also dedicated buttons in the Master E-MEM Module ( ME 1 Sec ,
ME 2 Sec , etc.) which are enabled when the ME is in Split Mode.
• If a Secondary partition is unassigned (none), E-MEM control is only
available on that ME’s individual Local E-MEM Module when it has
been delegated to a Secondary partition. The Master E-MEM Module
will have no control of that MEs Secondary partition.
• If a Secondary partition is enabled, then E-MEM control of that Sec-
ondary partition will be available from the Master E-MEM Module.
Control continues to be available from that ME’s individual Local
E-MEM Module when it is delegated to its Secondary partition.
• If a Secondary partition is attached to its Primary partition level,
E-MEM control of the two partitions will be linked together. Specifi-
cally, Master E-MEM operations for that level will always affect both
partitions. When the individual ME is delegated, E-MEM operations
will affect both partitions. However, when the individual ME Sec-
ondary is delegated, E-MEM operation will only affect that Secondary
partition.
Split Layered Mode
Video Compositing, or Layered Mode, is a feature that allows the operator
to composite up to six keys together to create a single video/key pair. These
two signals to be routed in parallel to provide a much cleaner key than
would normally be possible. This key pair can be re-entered into the
switcher on another keyer to create more key layers on a different ME. This
compositing of keys can be done on either or both of the primary and sec-
ondary outputs.
Split Layered mode can be particularly useful. For instance, you can split
ME 1 and assign keyer 1 to the primary side and keyers 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to
the secondary side. On Pgm-Pst keyer 6, you can select ME 1 secondary as
the source for the keyer. You now have the six keys on Pgm-Pst, (ME 4 – Key
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6) and ME 1 – Key 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 show up on ME 4 Keyer 4.)
Layering is enabled on an ME-by-ME basis in the ME Mode menu. When
enabled for the primary output, the A output has black selected as the back-
ground source and the B output acts as the key cut signal for the keyers
selected for the primary output. Similarly, for the secondary output the
C output has black selected as the background source and the D output acts
as the key cut signal for the keyers selected. Priority of the layers is set using
normal keyer priority controls.
