The Broadcast Pix system has a powerful memory system that can combine all
devices in the system. It enables the saving and instant recall of a panel’s set-ups, or
the set-ups plus the sources assigned, or even the individual content element in a
device, such as a specific lower third graphic in the CG. The Mem system can save
an entire panel, or a portion of it, such as a keyer, effect, preview source, aux, key
state, etc.
SnapShot Memories, or “MEMs” for short, are generally saved during pre-production
before a show is on-air. The saving process takes several steps to indicate exactly
which portions of the panel to save, and whether to save just the set-ups or the
source assignments as well. In contrast, since the recalls of memories happen on air,
recall is streamlined and designed to be quickly accessible.
There are a total of 3 Memory devices: ME 1 MEM for memories specific to M/E 1,
ME 2 MEM for memoires specific to M/E 2 and MEM for Overall memories that can
access the entire panel. Each MEM device can hold up to 999 SnapShot memories
for a total 2997 global memories, which can be sorted in PixMaster, as described in
section 3.
