Keying

Preset Pattern

A preset pattern uses a wipe pattern generator, rather than an incoming
key cut signal to define the hole cut in the background. Key clip and gain
controls are not available for a preset pattern, but controls over the loca-
tion, size, border, opacity, and edge softness are available.

Split Key

A split key uses an alternative key cut signal for keying. On the Zodiak
system, a key split is performed by selecting the desired key fill signal, then
selecting an alternative signal to be used as the key cut (

).
