The Procamp controls are adjusted with either the slider bars or arrow
buttons. The corresponding numeric values are displayed in the text boxes.
- ²
Video Gain
raises or lowers the overall amplitude of the video signal. It
has a range of 50 to 200 percent of nominal.
- ²
Chroma Gain
changes the amplitude of the chrominance portion of the
signal to change the color intensity. It has a range of 50 to 200 percent of
nominal.
-
Black Level
sets the voltage level of the reference black level. This is
expressed in mV in the PAL video standard and in IRE units in NTSC.
The range in the PAL standard is –140 to 140 mV. The range in the NTSC
standard is –20 to +20 IRE.
-
Chroma Phase
sets the colors by varying the phase of the chrominance
subcarrier. The range is –45 to +45.
- ²
Luminance Black Clip Level
is the point where the procamp clips the
luminance portion of any video that drops below this level. For PAL, the
range is –150 mV to 0 mV and –20 IRE to 7.5 IRE (or 0 IRE if pedestal
is not selected) in the NTSC standard.
- ²
Luminance White Clip Level
follows the same logic, only it clips any
luminance above the set threshold. Its range in the PAL standard is 700 to
909.5 mV and 100 to 139.5 IRE in the NTSC standard.
- ²
Default Procamp
resets the Procamp to the factory-defined levels.
