
How are cameras connected (are you using component or SDI connections, or a combination of
several types)?
As you continue, you may make other adjustments relevant to your current production requirements:

You might calibrate your cameras individually using the Proc Amp settings in the Input Configuration
panels.

Perhaps you will also use Display Proc Amps to adjust output color characteristics.

What are your output device connection preferences? For example, will you send video from
Channel A to a local reference monitor using component cabling, or perhaps another connection
type? Will you connect a downstream switcher to Channel B using HD-SDI? What external audio
connections and adjustments are required?

You might create PLAY LIST pages of clips and other content, along with pages full of recorded events
in the CLIP LIST.
The list of adjustments, activities and assets involved in a specific production goes on, but the main point
to grasp here is that the session entails of all of the above, collectively. Assuming you do not deliberately
delete the session, all of your media and all of your settings are ready for immediate recall.
When you re-open an existing session, it’s just as if you were continuing an earlier event. Thus, if you
return to the same venue another day under basically similar conditions, you can opt to simply re-open
your prior session and be virtually ready to go. (Professional wisdom, of course, calls for testing everything
before actually beginning the event.) Naturally, you can store multiple sessions and load any session
freely. This greatly simplifies business models that involve regular trips to several venues, a number of
similar consecutive events, or different users with their own specific needs.

Having discussed sessions, let’s go on to consider how you create them, and choose which one to work
on when you have several to choose from. This and a few other top level functions are found in the 3Play’s
Home page.
