16 Basic operation Here’s how to transition (move) between video input sources. If you’re using a transition effect (Mix or Wipe), you can move between images A and B by moving the video fader up or down. If you’re using a compositing effect (Superimpose or P in P), the video fader adjusts the transparency of the composited images. fig.07-01-[...]

17 Basic operation You can use the [1] through [4] buttons to switch the video source for each channel. 1 Set the video fader to the “A” position.

As an example, here’s how to layer “foreground image B” on top of “background image A.” 1 Set the video fader [...]

20 Basic operation Superimpose is an effect that cuts out the dark portion of an image and places it on top of a background image. Use this effect when you want to add text you created with your computer or with the P-1 (sold separately). As an example, here’s how to superimpose text from image “B” into the background image “A.” * The sup[...]

21 Basic operation Here’s how you can temporarily black out the output image. 1 Press the Output button. The Output button will blink; a black screen will be output, and the image will disappear. fig.07-08.eps * If you press the Output button once again, the Output button will revert to steadily lit and the output image will reappear. Blacking ou[...]

22 Changing the System settings Lock mode lets you obtain a more stable image, which will prevent the image from distorting. This mode restricts operations that might cause the image to distort (such as input switching). 1 While holding down the Superimpose button, turn on the power. The words “LOCK MODE” will appear in the output image of vide[...]

23 Using MIDI to control the V-1 from an external device You can use the MIDI connectors to connect the V-1 to an external MIDI device, and control the V-1 from your external MIDI device. What is MIDI? MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is a worldwide standard for transferring musical performance data and related information.[...]

24 Using MIDI to control the V-1 from an external device By using a connected P-1 (sold separately) to control the V-1, you can easily add still images or text to a video image. fig.09-02.eps * For details, refer to the P-1 owner’s manual. After the power is turned on (if V-LINK is OFF), the following MIDI messages will be transmitted from MIDI O[...]
