INTRODUCTION
1-1. THE EIKOS LE (EKS400) OPERATING MODES
This mode allows for a single
Eikos
LE
to seamlessly switch and blend any of its 12 analog/digital
inputs with any other of the inputs, add PIP, titling or logo insertion to the live frame, while previewing
your every move before going live, to avoid embarrassing errors on your main screen. The Mixer
mode is the
Eikos
LE
native mode, and with no less than 6 layers (of which 3 live layers). The Video
output allows to have a full Main screen for recording or broadcasting.
MIXER MODE
MATRIX MODE
Before you start setting up your
Eikos
LE
for the first time, be sure you know what you actually want
to do with it. The
Eikos
LE
offers a choice of two operating modes, which results in a versatile video
production tool for live event staging and fixed installation applications.
* NOTE * :
We recommend resetting the device to its default values every time you set up your
shows or events (see the “Operating The
Eikos LE
” chapter, p28).
This mode turns your
Eikos
LE
into a true 12 x 2 scaled matrix, while preserving seamless switching
capabilities. Main and Preview outputs can be set to different resolutions and rates. Switching between
any of the inputs can be done with the various effects (Cut, Fade, Slides…) and synchronized on
both outputs.
