Keyframe Effects

Regions

The term "region" refers to some sort of functional block
of the system.
When saving or recalling snapshot registers and effect
registers, or creating or editing effects, you first select the
region to which the operation applies. You can also select
multiple regions simultaneously.
Classification of the regions
The regions are classified as follows.
• Master region
• The following 34 regions
- Switcher: M/E1, PGM/PST, User1 to User8
- DME: DME ch1 to DME ch8 (inclusive of Global)
- External devices: P-Bus, Router, Device 1 to Device
12, GPI, Macro
Only the regions assigned to the region selection buttons of
the numeric keypad control block can be used
simultaneously (see page 491).
Regions applicable to keyframe operations
All the regions less the Router region.
Regions applicable to snapshot operations
Fifteen regions, that is, the above regions less all of the
external device regions.
"User" regions
You can optionally assign the following regions to the
regions User1 to User8 (see page 526). The User regions
shown in parenthesis are the default assignments.
• Color backgrounds 1 and 2 (User1)
• AUX1 to AUX48 (User2)
• Frame Memory 1 to 8 (User4)
• Color correctors 1 and 2
Notes on saving or recalling a frame memory still
image for or by a snapshot/keyframe
• The saving and recalling of frame memory images for
snapshots and keyframes is restricted to the still images
or clips on the eight frame memory outputs. The settings
Chapter
made for frame memory images in the Freeze menu or
other menus do not apply to snapshots or keyframes.
• To reproduce a frame memory still image or a clip of
them by recalling a snapshot or keyframe, you must have
the same images that were present in the frame memory
when you saved the snapshot or keyframe. Therefore,
when saving a snapshot or keyframe using frame
memory, you must also save the images to a storage
media such as the hard disk.
Reference region
When multiple regions are selected, only one region
appears in the displays for menu and numeric keypad
operations. This is called the "reference region."
The reference region is determined according to the
following precedence.
M/E1 >P/P >User1 >User2 >User3 >User4 >User5
>User6 >User7 >User8 >DME ch1 >DME ch2 >DME
ch3 >DME ch4 >DME ch5 >DME ch6 >DME ch7
>DME ch8 >Device1 >Device2 >Device3 >Device4
>Device5 >Device6 >Device7 >Device8 >Device9
>Device10 >Device11 >Device12 >P-Bus >GPI
>Router >Macro
Master region
The regions saved in a master snapshot register or master
timeline register and the register numbers saved in such
regions can be recalled at a time as the master region.
The master region can be saved or recalled using the
numeric keypad control block.
