A vision mixer with full support for multiple M/Es. A follow M/E repeats its leader’s cuts with its own sources. Every input has its own colour processing, and the mixer converts colour space on the way in and on the way out.
Each M/E has its own programme selection, its own preview selection and its own transition. Sources, keyers, media and presets belong to the mixer and are shared by every M/E. Add an M/E with a preview bus, or as programme only.
A follow M/E has a leader and a map. Every selection, take, cut and transition change on the leader is repeated on the follower. The map substitutes on the way through, in three substitution groups: sources, stinger clips and keyers. Anything that is not in the map passes through unchanged.
Correct each source where it enters the mixer. Convert it to the format you transmit where it leaves.
Every input has a proc-amp: brightness, contrast, saturation and hue. A grade adds exposure, temperature, tint, red, green and blue gains, and black and white clip, with a strength fader. Colour settings are saved with the mixer.
Each source carries its colorimetry: transfer, primaries and range. SDR, PQ and HLG sources in BT.709 or BT.2020, limited or full range, are converted on the way in, so mixed sources cut together.
Set the egress format: 8-bit or 10-bit, SDR, PQ (HDR10) or HLG, BT.709 or BT.2020. The output has a tone-map (BT.2390 EETF, Hable or Reinhard) and a legaliser.
The canvas runs from 720p to 2160p, at 23.976 to 60 fps.
Cut, mix, dip, DVE and stinger transitions, and 70 wipe patterns. Run a transition with AUTO or the T-bar, or rehearse it on preview first.
Chroma, luma and alpha keyers. Each has position, size, crop and opacity, and animated moves between them. Box, polygon and from-source masks tidy the matte.
Each output has its own keyers, its own stingers and its own layer order. A clean feed is one more output of the same mixer.
Media players for stills and clips, with loop, seek and speed. A stinger library holds alpha transitions, each with its own cover frame.
Save a setup as a preset and recall it from a shotbox page. Pin the transitions you use most as one-tap buttons that arm or take.
Tally follows programme and preview. Audio-follow-video opens channels in the audio mixer as you cut to their source.
