Key Setting Operations
 
Using Menus 
 
There are two ways of making key settings: either using
 
menus, or using the Flexi Pad. 
This section describes basic procedures for making key
 
settings using the menus, with the M/E-1 >Key1 menu as
 
an example. 
Operations in the Key menus are the same for each
 
switcher bank. 
 
 
Key Setting Menus 
 
    The key setting menus for each bank are as follows. 
 
   
4  Set the parameters. 
When a luminance key or linear key is selected

a)
 
Setting this value to 1, produces the “through” state in which no filter
 
is applied. The larger the value, the more strongly the filter is applied.

Open the M/E-1 >Key1 >Type menu (1111). 
2 
In the <Key Type> group, select the key type. 
Luminance: Luminance key
 
Linear: Linear key
 
Chroma: Chroma key 
Color Vector: Color vector key 
Key Wipe Pattern: Key wipe pattern key

Carry out the following settings as required,
 
depending on the key type selected in step 2. 
To enable clean mode 
(

p. 79) 
for a luminance
 
key, linear key, or color vector key: 
Select
 
[Clean Mode] to turn it on.
 
When clean mode is enabled, key fill is added to
 
the background without cutting out with key
 
source. 
When chroma key is selected: 
Select [Chroma
 
Adjust] to access the Chroma Adjust menu
 
(
1 
p. 86), and make the required settings.
 
When a key wipe pattern key is selected: In the
 
M/E-1 >Key1 >Transition >Wipe Adjust menu
 
(1116.1) 
(
1 
p. 106), carry out pattern selection
 
and modifier setting, then return to the M/E-1 
>Key1 >Type menu (1111).
