Selecting an Effect This section describes the types of effects you can use on this system, and how to select an effect. Types of Effect The DFS-700/700P has more than 450 built-in effect patterns provided as standard. Each pattern is identified by a number, and the patterns are grouped together under headings such as “wipe” and “picture-in-picture”. For the differences between transition and animation effects, see the section “Background Image and Foreground Image” (page 3-12).
Selecting an Effect Example Effects This section shows as examples the effect patterns (“direct patterns”) which you can access simply by pressing a button in the pattern/numeric keypad. Note that the effect patterns shown below are the factory default assignments, and you can change the patterns assigned to buttons 0 to 9 and P IN P/RST. For details of how to change the assignments, see the section “Changing Direct Pattern Assignments” (page 4-1).
4 Pattern number: 700 Effect type: matrix wipe Motion type: transition The foreground image appears in the upper left corner, and fills the screen in a series of vertical strips. 5 Pattern number: 1300 Effect type: slide Motion type: transition Chapter 3 Basic Operation The foreground image appears from the right, and slides over the background image to the left.
Selecting an Effect 2 Pattern number: 2100 Effect type: page turn Motion type: transition The foreground image appears as though progressively covering the background image. 3 Pattern number: 2200 Effect type: sphere Motion type: transition Chapter 3 Basic Operation The foreground image appears in a ball shape in the upper right. It “bounces” on the bottom of the screen, then when it reaches the top, turns into a plane and fills the screen, covering the background image.
Nonlinear effects These effects include effects such as ripples, under names such as lens, burst, explosion, swirl, and rings. Ripple Lens Swirl Explosion These effects combine two foreground images with the background image. They include two-channel picture-in-picture, two-picture intersect, twopicture brick, two-channel page turn, and so on. Two-channel picture-in-picture Two-picture Intersect Masked flip Note To use two-channel DME effects requires the optional BKDF-711 2nd Channel DME Board.
Selecting an Effect 3D mapping effects These effects use nonlinear image processing techniques. They include 3D page turn, 3D beveled edge, and so on. 3D wave Chapter 3 Basic Operation Three-picture cube 3D page turn Multi-cube 3D beveled edge 3D cylinder Note Using 3D mapping effects requires the optional BKDF-712 3D Video Mapping Effects Board. Using the three-picture cube effect also requires the optional BKDF-711 2nd Channel DME Board.
Selection in Direct Pattern Selection Mode In the direct pattern selection mode, pressing any button (other than INS, DEL, UP, DOWN, or ENTER) in the pattern/numeric keypad directly selects an effect pattern. For details of the effects assigned by factory default to the buttons in the pattern/ numeric keypad, see the previous section “Example Effects” (page 3-18). Procedure To select an effect pattern in the direct pattern selection mode, use the following procedure.
Selecting an Effect Selection in Pattern Number Specification Mode In the pattern number specification mode, you select the desired effect pattern by entering the number. Procedure To select an effect pattern in the pattern number specification mode, use the following procedure. Note If the EDIT button in the user program section (see page 2-11) is lit, first press it, turning it off.
If you enter a wrong number Before pressing the ENTER button press the P IN P/RST button to cancel the wrong number, then enter the correct number. Note If you enter an invalid number (a number with no corresponding pattern), this is automatically corrected to the closest valid number larger than the number you entered. However, if you enter a number larger than 9309 this is corrected to pattern number 0001. Adjusting the number before confirming To increment the number by one, press the UP button.
Modifying the Boundary — Border, Soft Edge, Beveled Edge, and Crop You can apply a border to the boundary between the foreground image and background image, or mask unwanted parts of the image. There are four effects for modifying the boundary, as follows. You can use all four simultaneously. Border: apply a border to the image boundary. Soft edge: blur the image boundary. Beveled edge: apply a bevel to the image boundary. Crop: adjust the image boundary position, to eliminate unwanted parts.
To blur the image boundary Use the following procedure. 1 Press the SOFT button in the EDGE section, turning it on, and display page 1 of the EDGE menu. EDGE Border Soft BvlWid BVLTYP BvlInt 1/2 0-100 0-100 –100-100 01-20 0-100 PAGE 2 F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 Turn the F2(Soft) knob, to set the degree of boundary blurring. To apply a beveled edge to the image boundary Use the following procedure.
Modifying the Boundary — Border, Soft Edge, Beveled Edge, and Crop Indications in the EDGE menu with square brackets [ ] The parameters in the EDGE menu for functions which are turned off appear in square brackets [ ]. For example, when the border function is off, when you display the EDGE menu the setting for Border appears in square brackets. In this state the knob adjustment is still valid. When you press the BORDER button, turning the function on, the new setting is reflected accordingly.
Changing the Pattern Position and Size — Location (X)(Y)(Z) You can adjust the position and size of an effect pattern when inserting a foreground image into the background image. Note For some effect patterns it is not possible to change their position and size. If pressing the LOCATION button does not turn it on, it means that one of those effect patterns is selected.
Changing the Pattern Position and Size — Location (X)(Y)(Z) 3 To move the pattern in the depth direction (z-axis), turn the Z-knob in the location section.
Modifying the Pattern — User Modifiable Effects User modifiable effects are those effects for which you can modify the effect pattern by varying the parameters. The variable parameters vary from effect to effect. For the pattern number of user modifiable effects, and the variable parameters, see the section “Effect Control Parameter List” (page A-5) Procedure To modify the effect pattern by varying the parameters, use the following procedure.
Modifying the Pattern — User Modifiable Effects Example of user modifiable effect parameters As an example, if you select mosaic (pattern number 1016), the following parameters appear in the menu display. 1016 Size Aspect Soft MskAsp TYPE 1/1 0-100 0-100 0-100 0-100 FLAT PAGE F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 For the effect of the parameters, see the following figure.
Inserting Characters and Graphics (1) — Title Key You can insert (or superimpose) text and graphics into the background image while applying effects. You can use either a luminance key or a chroma key for this insertion. Luminance Key In a luminance key, a certain luminance level in the foreground image is used as the threshold for creating the key signal, and the corresponding part of the foreground image is inserted into the background image.
Inserting Characters and Graphics (1) — Title Key Procedure To insert text and graphics in a background image by means of a luminance key, use the following procedure.
4 In the TITLE section of the menu control section, press a LUM button, turning it on. The luminance key menu appears in the menu display. In the following example, the LUM button in column 1 is lit. T1LUM Clip Gain INVERT FILL Densty 1/1 0-100 0-100 OFF VIDEO 0-100 PAGE 5 F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 Either press the CUT button in the effect transition section, or move the fader lever. A composite of the foreground and background images appears in the program monitor.
Inserting Characters and Graphics (1) — Title Key Chroma Keying In chroma keying, a key signal is created based on a specific reference color in the foreground image, and used to replace the corresponding parts of the foreground image by the background image. Normally, the foreground image is created with a plain blue background, which is then replaced by the background image.
Auto chroma keying To combine the background image and foreground image by auto chroma keying, use the following procedure.
Inserting Characters and Graphics (1) — Title Key 4 In the TITLE section of the menu control section, press the CRK button, turning it on. In the menu display page 1 of the chroma key menu appears. The following example appears when the CRK button in column 1 is lit. T1CRK Clip Gain Hue Angle 1/3 0-100 0-100 0-99 0-100 PAGE 5 F1 F2 F3 F4 AUTO F5 Press the F5(AUTO) button. In the program monitor screen, the foreground image appears with a white box cursor.
Making fine adjustments to the composite image Following the manual chroma key procedure (see next page), adjust the hue, clip, and gain for the specified chroma key color. You can also adjust the luminance of the part cut out by the chroma key. To switch between the composite image and the background image Press the CUT button. This toggles between the composite image and the background image.
Inserting Characters and Graphics (1) — Title Key Manual chroma key To combine the background image and foreground image by manual chroma keying, use the following procedure.
4 Watching the composite image on the program monitor, in page 1 of the chroma key menu, adjust the hue, clip, and gain. When the background part of the foreground image is not completely replaced by the background image Adjust the hue with the F3(Hue) knob and the clip with the F1(Clip) knob. When the outline of the foreground image is not clear Adjust the clip with the F1(Clip) knob and the gain with the F2(Gain) knob.
Inserting Characters and Graphics (1) — Title Key Adjusting the hue range for chroma keying (the “angle” setting) If there are fluctuations in the background color in the foreground image, it may not be immediately possible to key the background image into the whole of the desired background. In this case, you can correct this by increasing the range of hues (the “angle” setting) used for chroma keying. (This means using a wider-angled sector of the hue circle.
4 Watching the composite image on the program monitor, turn the F3(Hue) and F2(Sat) knobs, until the boundary between the background image and foreground image provides a natural match of hue and saturation. Creating a composite image with a semi-transparent foreground image (density function) You can make the inserted image semi-transparent, and insert it into the background image. Use the following procedure.
Inserting Characters and Graphics (1) — Title Key Masking Part of a Title Key You can apply a rectangular mask, to eliminate unwanted parts of the key. The masked part is filled with the background image. This operation is common to luminance and chroma keys.
Inserting Characters and Graphics (2) — Downstream Key As its name implies, the downstream key (often abbreviated as DSK) is a key which is added downstream the title keying stages, to the alreadyformed composite image made up of the background and foreground images.
Inserting Characters and Graphics (2) — Downstream Key Procedure To insert a downstream key, use the following procedure. For details of key source and key fill signal connections, see the section “Key Signal Connections” (page 6-3).
3 Select the downstream key fill signal. 1) Press the PAGE button, and switch to page 1 of the downstream key menu. DSK Clip Gain INVERT FILL Densty 1/2 0-100 0-100 OFF VIDEO 0-100 PAGE F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 2) Press the F4(FILL) button, to select the signal used as the key fill signal.

Inserting Characters and Graphics (2) — Downstream Key To mask a part of the downstream key You can mask out unwanted portions of a downstream key (text or graphics). To use the mask function, use the following procedure.
Setting Up a Transition This section describes how to set the transition time and transition direction. Setting the Transition Time The transition time measures the duration of an effect in frames (1/30 second (NTSC) or 1/25 second (PAL)), ranging from 0 to 999 frames. In this system, you can set the transition time for a downstream key or fade-to-black independently of the transition time for an effect. Procedure To set the transition time, use the following procedure.
Setting Up a Transition 3 Press the ENTER button. The dots to the lower right of the digits disappear, confirming the transition time. If you make a mistake entering the time Before pressing the ENTER button press the P IN P/RST button to return the display to the last confirmed value, then enter the correct time. Setting the Transition Direction Chapter 3 Basic Operation Transition effects are normally executed in the direction in which the foreground image enters (forwards, or “normal”).
Operation of transition effects The following figure illustrates the execution of an example transition effect. In the figure, “B” is the background image and “F” the foreground image. Operation in the normal direction (REV button off) Pattern number 1630 B F F B B F Operation in the reverse direction (REV button on) Pattern number 1630 F B B F F For the direction of operation of other transition effects, see the section “Effect Motion Types” (page A-21).
Executing an Effect To execute an effect, after setting the execution direction (normal/reverse), in the effect transition section press the AUTO TRANS button, or move the fader lever.
Using the AUTO TRANS button To execute the effect automatically at the preset transition time, press the AUTO TRANS button, turning it on. To pause the transition During the transition, press the AUTO TRANS button, turning it off. Note If the fader lever is in an intermediate position, then the transition pauses at the corresponding position. To make sure the transition does not pause, first move the fader lever to either end of its travel. To resume the transition Press the AUTO TRANS button again.
Executing an Effect Checking the direction and state of progress of the transition Whether you are carrying out the effect manually or automatically, the transition indicator on the left of the fader lever (20 LEDs) shows the state of progress of the transition. When you start the transition, the indicator lights progressively in the direction of the transition, and goes off when the transition completes. If you pause the transition, the indicator remains on in the corresponding position.
Adjusting Color Mattes You can adjust the color of each color matte individually, and also copy parameters from other color mattes. Procedure To adjust a color matte, use the following procedure.

Adjusting Image Colors — Color Correction The color correction function allows you to adjust the overall color balance of images, or correct the white balance for different lighting color temperatures. You can apply color correction to the signal input to any one of the primary input connectors (VIDEO INPUT 1 to 8). Notes • Color correction settings cannot be saved in a snapshot. • The color correction function cannot be used for the effect patterns numbered 2261, 2264, 2267, 2269, and 2279.
Adjusting Image Colors — Color Correction 4 Watching the image on the monitor, turn the F1 to F5 knobs to adjust the color. F1(Gain): adjust the chrominance gain (the depth of the colors). F2(Hue): adjust the hue. Note When F3(Offset) is set to its minimum value of zero, turning the F2(Hue) knob has no effect on the hue. F3(Offset): vary the adjustment range of the F2(Hue) knob. The larger the value of “Offset,” the wider the range of color adjustment.
Freezing an Input Image — Frame Memory Function Using the frame memory function, you can capture a “freeze frame” from input video or store a still frame. You can then use this still image as a video source. Procedure To capture a freeze frame in memory, use the following procedure.

While holding down the DIRECT PATTERN button, press the button (0 to 9, or P IN P/RST) to which you want to assign the pattern.
User Program Effects In addition to the internal effect patterns, you can also create usercustomized effect patterns. These are referred to as “user program effects.” With standard equipment you can save a maximum of 40 effects. You use these effect patterns in the same way as the internal patterns, using the assigned number. Constructing a User Program Effect You build a user program effect from key frames, which show an outline of the animation.
User Program Effects Types of User Program Effect There are four types of user program effects. The four types must be registered saved in the pattern number ranges shown below. Effect type Pattern number Linear Transition Nonlinear 9000 to 9009 Animation 9100 to 9109 Transition 9200 to 9209 Animation 9300 to 9309 Linear: effects built from rotation, magnification, and movement of the x-, y-, and z-axes For details of the modification parameters, see page 4-6.
Modification Parameters You can adjust key frames, using the effect control section and location section to set the parameters described on pages 4-6 and 4-7. • If you specify a linear user program effect number, the following three pages appear in the menu display. Page 1/3: Rot-X, Rot-Y, Rot-Z, Pers Page 2/3: Loc-X, Loc-Y, Loc-Z, KfDur You can control Loc-X, Loc-Y, and Loc-Z from the location section.

User Program Effects Displaying parameter values The numerical values of the parameters appear in the menu.
About the key frame duration The KfDur value (key frame duration) for key frame n corresponds to the interval between key frame n and key frame n+1. Therefore, if the settings are as follows: Key frame 1 ... not effective Key frame 2 ... KfDur 100 Key frame 3 ... KfDur 50 Key frame 4 ... KfDur 50 The interval between key frames 1 and 2 is twice that between the other pairs of frames. For example, if the transition duration is set to 100 frames, the transition will proceed as follows: Key frame 4 t 3 ...
User Program Effects Creating New User Program Effects To create a new user program effect, use the following procedure.
4 Press the EDIT button. The button lights, the system enters user program edit mode, and the monitor shows the image (key frame 1) selected on the FOREGROUND bus buttons. This is because for a new effect, key frame 1 is saved as an unmodified, full-screen foreground. 5 In the menu, set the parameters, and create key frame 2. When creating a transition effect, see the section “Notes on creating a transition user program effect” below.
User Program Effects Editing User Program Effects You can recall a created user program effect, and change its parameters, or add, delete, or copy key frames.
To change the key frame parameters After carrying out the procedure to step 4 in the section “To recall a user program effect” above, use the following procedure. 5 Press the UP or DOWN button in the pattern/numeric keypad, so that the number of the key frame for which you want to change the parameters appears in the EDIT display window. 6 7 Change the parameters in the menu. Press the ENTER button. This saves the changed key frame parameters.

Glossary Glossary A-roll edit An edit using one player and one recorder for basic cut editing. Appendixes A/B roll edit An edit using two players and one recorder, to permit special effects such as mix and wipe. B–Y signal A color difference signal. The blue signal minus the Y signal. Background picture In animation effects, the picture into which the foreground picture is inserted. In transition effects, the picture that is replaced as the effect progresses (FROM picture).
Key fill A signal used to fill the hole cut with the key source signal. Key frame User program effect data which defines the effect at a specific point. User program effects are made up of sequentially executed key frames. Key gain The sensitivity of circuits, which can be adjusted with the switcher’s key gain control. This is done to obtain the desired blurring of key edges.
