Features of the MVS-6000 Multi Format
Switcher System
The MVS-6000 Multi Format Switcher System boasts high performance and
multifunctionality. The following are some of the principal features of this
system.
System configuration flexibility
Multiformat support
This system supports both HDTV and SDTV signal formats. The format
selection can be switched by a simple control panel operation.
For the signal formats that can be selected, see “Setting the Signal Format” in
Chapter 18 (Volume 3).
Extensible system configuration
By suitable combination of options, the switcher can be configured with
various inputs and outputs, and different numbers of M/E banks. The system
offers the flexibility to change and expand as required.
Additionally, by installing the optional MKS-6470 DME Board Set, you can
obtain the functionality of two DME channels.
Powerful external device interfaces
By connecting to a Sony routing switcher or similar, a large system can be
built. From the control panel, it is also possible to operate other equipment,
including VTRs and disk recorders.
Powerful tally system
The complete system including routing switcher provides an all-inclusive tally
system. The system can be adapted to different applications and settings, using
multiple tally outputs, including both on-air and recording tallies.
Comprehensive video manipulation
M/E banks
Each mix/effects bank (M/E bank) is equipped with four keyers, and each
keyer is capable not only of chroma keying, but also independent key
transitions separate from the background transitions. The four keys can be
freely combined, to carry out four different program outputs.
