This section shows examples of two common MXProDV configurations, but does not
describe every possibility.
You can have up to four separate audio/video input sources active at any given time.
MXProDV designates them as sources A, B, C, and D. You can use any mix of devices
as necessary to complete your work so long as they are valid MXProDV devices. For
example, you can use VCRs, VTR’s, camcorders, laserdisc players, satellite tuners,
broadcast tuners/receivers, character generators (CG’s), video-equipped computers,
and audio devices (such as a CD player or tape deck).
MXProDV sends the output signal to a recording device (such as a VCR) and/or a Pro-
gram monitor.
A second monitor, Preview, is used to display preview images of all input sources.
The Preview monitor also displays the on-screen controls you use to operate
MXProDV.
Correlating Inputs to MXProDV Jacks
As stated above, MXProDV designates your input sources as A, B, C, and D. However,
as you learned earlier, you can connect up to ten different devices to use an input
sources. On the MXProDV rear panel, you find four jacks for Y/C (S-Video) inputs,
four jacks for composite inputs, and two DV inputs. The Y/C and composite jacks are
numbered 1 through 4, and the DV jacks are numbered 1 and 2.
