Answers About the MX-1's TBC

Here are answers to some commonly asked technical questions. (Some of
this is highly technical but don't be concerned — you don't need to under-
stand any of it to have full use of the Mixer and its TBC.)
• There are no TBC control options other than the frame rate lock described
previously. The entire signal is always corrected, including the horizontal
and vertical intervals.
• The TBC is a dual-field TBC. It corrects two sources at once. Since all
transitions and effects use only two of the four sources at any time, the
dual field TBC can correct the time base of the entire output signal,
transitions and all.
• The Mixer's TBC is an infinite-window TBC.
• The output sync of the TBC is independent of all inputs. There is no way to
synchronize it with an external sync or with any of the inputs.
