Page 11: Main Features Of The P-1
You can use Mix or Wipe effects to transition between photos, and superimpose titles on a photo. * You can create titles using the P-1’s Title Maker function (p. 75), or create titles on your computer and load them via USB.
Page 12: Main Applications
Photos of the performers, still images appropriate for the song, or titles you create can be projected on the screen. You can use the touch panel to switch the photos or titles. The P-1 also provides convenient functions for a concert performance, such as playing background music or narrations.
Page 13: Using The P-1 With The V-1
SYMPHONY CONCERT VIDEO INPUT SYMPHONY CONCERT By using the P-1 in conjunction with the V-1 four-channel video mixer, you can superimpose titles on scenes of the performance. • For more about connections with the V-1, refer to p. 91.
Page 14: In A Presentation
You can preview a photo before outputting it for the audience, or freely select a photo from a list of “thumbnails.” • For more about the P-1’s display screen and how to output a photo from the P-1, refer to p. 29.
Page 15: When Performing Live
Photos can be switched in synchronization with a performance on keyboard or V-Drums, in synchronization with MP3/SMF playback on the P-1 itself, or in synchronization with the input from an external audio device. • For more about switching photos in synchronization with MIDI or audio, refer to p. 49.
