8. Preview Overlay (Synergy 2 only)
The Preview Overlay Group allows you to control specific overlay information that is
displayed on the preview monitor, such as VTR time code, a count up/down timer,
source ID, safe title, etc. Displays are individually selectable on the preview monitor for
quick reference. The
Preview Overlay option must be installed. Refer to the section
“ Preview Overlay Group ” on page 4–38 for details.
Storing Memory Registers
This section provides instructions for storing memory registers in two locations on the Synergy
switcher:
• Storing registers using the Global Memory System
• Storing registers using the MLE Memory System
The Synergy switcher allows you to store 100 complete panel setups. Each register can be regarded as
having separate compartments for individual MLEs. When viewed this way, you can store 200 unique
MLE setups on the Synergy 2, 300 setups on the Synergy 3, and 400 setups on the Synergy 4 —
however, you are limited to 100 setups for each MLE. When you store an MLE, you store everything
— all transitions, rates, crosspoints, borders, keys, fader position, transition limits, clip levels, wash
colors, fly key data, pattern multipliers, DVE registers,
EFF DISS , KEYS ONLY , and INCL DVE
button settings — everything.
In addition, underlying data is also stored. For example, if you store an MLE that includes one or
more keys, not only is the key data stored for the current on-air keys, but also data (e.g., clip and gain)
is also stored for keys that are
not currently on air.
When you store memories at the Global Memory System level, the Key Only and Effects Dissolve
settings are saved in the selected MLE memory system as well.
Storing Registers using the Global Memory System
For all Synergy switchers, use the following procedure to store switcher memory registers using the
Global Memory System Group :
1. Set up the desired effect in one or more MLEs.
2. Select the MLE (or group of MLEs) that you wish to store from the Store Section
located in the Global Memory System Group .
• To enable all MLEs for the next storage operation, press ALL .
• To store just one MLE, press the button for the desired MLE.
• Synergy 3 and 4 only — To store two MLEs, press the desired MLE buttons
together, such as MLE 2 + MLE 3 .
• Synergy 4 only — To store three MLEs, press the desired MLE buttons together,
such as MLE 1 + MLE 3 + MLE 4 .
Note
VTR Clip registers are stored automatically when you set up your clips
on the VTR Clips Menu . You do not have to use the keypad in the
Global Memory System Group .
