A Word About Clean Feed
The Clean Feed Menu allows you to set up your MLE keyers or DSKs in a special output mode.
• On an MLE, the Clean Feed output can be generated from any MLE keyer — from
before or after the keyers as illustrated below. The point from which the feed is derived
is software-configurable.
Basic Clean Feed Modes
~ At point 1 above, the clean feed output is pulled after the MLE’s program/preset
bus, but before the two keys are added.
~ At point 2 above, the clean feed output is pulled downstream of the two MLE
keyers — effectively, an additional output.
• If assigned to the DSKs, the Clean Feed output can be configured in one of the
following ways:
Split Clean Feed Modes
~ In Split mode, program is sent out of DSK 1 and Clean Feed out of DSK 2 . Both
DSKs are independently switched.
~ The Split Follow mode has the same routing as the Split mode, but both DSKs are
slaved together. If you cut on DSK 1 , DSK 2 automatically cuts in sync. This
special mode is very useful for switching a program with two simultaneous
languages — using two different CGs.
~ In Between Keys mode, the clean feed output is pulled downstream of DSK1 but
before DSK2 .
• If the special DVE Alpha mode is assigned on the Clean Feed Menu , it eliminates
DVE Send limitations with regard to routing keys to a DVE. Specifically, you cannot
route a Squeeze & Tease Key, a Chroma Key, or a modified Auto Select key to an
external DVE without a background signal behind it —
unless you enable the Clean
Feed Alpha function.
