The bottom band of the Live Desktop, below the monitoring section, is host to the Switcher and related
controls and features, including the Overlay Controls (Figure 55).
FIGURE 56
AV-HLC100 uses a quick and convenient single-row Switcher (Figure 56) to accomplish operations that
would otherwise take at least two steps using the Control Surface.
Thus a single click on a Switcher button thus does several things as follows:
•
The clicked source is assigned to AV-HLC100's internal 'Preview' row (associated audio sources
may also be affected by Switcher activity – see Section 13.8.4).
AV-HLC100 performs a transition to display the designated (Preview) source by applying
•
transition defined by the Transition Mode settings at right.
The Switcher row can also be used to determine what video source is sent to the AUX video bus (carried
by the SDI 2 and the AUX NDI outputs).
As noted in Section 8.3.2, the default source can be either Program or (clean)Preview. However, by
holding down ALT on the keyboard while punching a Switcher row button, any Switcher source can be
sent to AUX instead. An AUX tag is added to the Switcher display to identify the selected source. To
revert to the default AUX source, roll the mouse over this tag and click the (x) gadget that it shows.
