Transition Control and Upstream Keyers
ON AIR
The ON AIR indicator buttons above each keyer are labeled ON and indicate which of the
upstream keys are currently on air. These can also be used to immediately cut a key on
or off air.
MACRO
The macro button is used to enable the macro feature which changes the source select row
of buttons to macro buttons corresponding to macro slots.
TIP There are ten macro buttons in the source select row, so if you have macros
recorded to slots greater than ten, you can access these by opening the macro
settings in the LCD menu and changing the macro group using the control knob.
For more information on how to record and run macros using the advanced panel, refer to
‘recording Macros using ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel’ later in this section.
Downstream Keyers
DSK TIE
The DSK TIE button will enable the DSK on the preview output, along with the next transition
effects, and tie it to the main transition control so that the DSK can be taken to air with the
next transition.
Because the tied downstream keyer is now tied to the main transition, the transition will happen
at the rate specified in the auto rate setting in the LCD ‘home’ menu. When the DSK is tied,
the signal routing to the clean feed 1 is unaffected.
DSK CUT
The DSK CUT button is used to cut the DSK on or off air and indicates whether the DSK is
currently on or off air. The button is illuminated if the DSK is currently on air.
DSK AUTO
The DSK AUTO button will mix the DSK on or off air at the rate specified in the DSK rate
LCD menu setting.
