GRASS VALLEY KAYENNE Datasheet

KAYENNE
V i d eo p r o d u c t i o n c e n t e r
the most powerful video
production switcher in the
world.
The Kayenne ™ Video Production Center
is a new family of production switchers
(video mixers) from Grass Valley
All Kayenne frames include a half-
M/E and scale from 1.5 to 2.5 M/Es in
compact (4 RU) frames and from 2.5
to 4.5 M/Es in standard (8 RU) frames.
The frame has up to 96 inputs and 48
outputs.
To meet ever-increasing production
needs, Kayenne provides the most video
processing power available. Each M/E
has six keyers. A 4.5 M/E system has up
to 30 keyers and 20 DPM channels.
The Kayenne family has a range of state-
of-the-art modular control panels scaling
from 1 to 4 M/E stripes, accompanied
by a local aux panel and a 15:9 high-
resolution touchscreen menu.

Kayenne's panel and menu layout are
immediately recognizable and operable
™ . for those familiar with Kalypso
switchers. Additionally, Kayenne
incorporates key features from the
Kayak switcher family plus many new
innovations. Once again, Grass Valley
has taken the lead in switcher design by
providing the industry with a switcher
that is both best-of-breed and the most
cost-effective.
Modular Control Panels
Each module of the Kayenne control
panel snaps into an extruded aluminum
tray, is easily removable, and is hot-
swappable. This modularity provides
multiple panel configurations ranging
in depth from 1 to 4 M/E stripes
and a width choice of 35, 25, or 15
(on selected models) source select
• Each full-function keyer has two
pages (frames) of video and key
storage to free up Image Store
outputs
• Four integrated DPMs (iDPMs) in each
M/E with Kurl
™
• Four independent channels of
eDPM with primary and secondary
combiner outputs are available in the
8 RU frame
• DoubleTake (split M/E mode)
™
included as standard on all systems
effectively increases the number of
M/Es to a total of up to 10
buttons per row. The control panels are
ergonomically designed and can be
™ mounted flat or in a banked curve.
Each source select and aux bus module
has two rows of OLED Source Name
Displays that provide ultra-clear text
and extremely wide viewing angles. All
buttons are illuminated with a selection
of RGB colors, which dynamically
change to indicate context (M/E colors,
key colors, source colors, and function
colors). Many buttons also have
programmable soft functions, which are
indicated by a four-character LED display
above them, such as those found on
the innovative Multifunction Module.
Transition Modules have Enhanced
Status Displays using easy to read LEDs.
• FlexiKey
feed mode) included as standard
on all systems for separately
programmable configurations of
keyers from each M/E output
and Spektra • Any partition can be placed into
layered mode, providing composite
video and key outputs
• Split-lever arm control of primary and
secondary partitions
• Aux bus transitions for dissolves and
wipes on aux bus outputs
• Automatic insertion of video in pillars
for 4:3 content into 16:9 production
