Split Keys
A Split Key allows you to assign a different alpha
source for a Key than the fill/alpha associations that
are set up during configuration or to use a separate
alpha source for a Self Key.
To create a Split Key:
1. Select a source on the Key/Aux bus to act as the
video fill (the source can be either an
Auto-Select Key or a Self Key).
2. Press and hold the AUTO SEL button.
3. Select a source on the Key/Aux bus to act as the
key alpha.
Note:
• Split Keys are initially created with clip set to
50% and gain set to 50%.
• While holding the AUTO SEL button to select the
key alpha, the SHIFT button stays active when
pressed. You do not have to hold down SHIFT to
access shifted sources. Press SHIFT again to
return to normal source selection.
Modifying Split Keys
You can modify the appearance of a Split Key to suit
your application.
To modify the appearance of a Split Key:

Note:
• If you wish to use a matte for the key fill, press the
Matte button on the Key/Aux bus to access the
Matte menu.
