Matricized Wipes
Using the Matricize Wipe feature, all Synergy switchers allow you to turn any standard pattern into a
matrix wipe, with full functionality in positioning and modifying the custom “matricized” pattern.
Use the following procedure to “Matricize” a wipe:
1. Select any matrix wipe pattern. The Matrix Menu is displayed.
Matrix Menu
2. Select the desired “standard” wipe pattern using the buttons in the Pattern Selection
Section .
3. On the Matrix Menu , toggle
Matricized
to
Yes
.
4. Modify the matricized wipe in the normal manner, using all available wipe modifiers
(including the modifiers for matrix wipes, such as
Square
,
Tall
,
Wide
, and
Anim
).
5. To disable the feature, toggle
Matricized
to
No
.
This completes the procedure to “Matricize” a wipe.
User Wipes
The switcher’s User Wipe feature allows you to select from over 60 additional wipes (that are
normally hidden from view on the panel). Once selected, you can place the “user” wipe on one of the
eight (seven on the Synergy 2) available
User Wipe buttons in the Pattern Selection Section . The
user wipes that you select are then available any time the specific User Wipe buttons are pressed.
The User Wipe buttons are essentially “presets” that can be programmed with your favorite User
Wipes, and used in the normal manner to suit the requirements of your shows. Note that a User Wipe
is
not a standard wipe with pattern modifiers applied — that function can easily be performed with
memory presets.
Use the following procedure to select a User Wipe :
1. In the Pattern Control Group , press SET USER to display the User Wipe Menu .
Note
All wipes on the switcher will be matricized at this point
