Synergy Series Operation Guide (v18) Introduction • 1–9
With all switchers in the series, any input can be assigned to any control panel push
button, thus simplifying installation and your ability to customize the panel layout.
Inputs can be used for video, alpha channel, chroma keying, or switcher reference.
Regarding reference, note that any serial digital input can be assigned as the reference. If
an analog reference is desired, Ross Video will optionally provide external conversion
from (or to) the analog domain.
Full MLE Effects Systems
All Synergy switchers include full-featured MLE systems — two on the Synergy 2, three on the
Synergy 3, and four on the Synergy 4. Note the following important MLE functions:
• Two wipe generators are standard with every MLE.
• Every MLE includes two keyers, both of which offer the following modes: matte fill,
key invert, mask, self (luminance) key, auto select (linear) key, preset pattern key, and
chroma key.
• Both MLE keyers offer extensive optional bordering that works with every key type.
• The optional 2D or 3D Squeeze & Tease feature can be installed in every MLE in the
switcher, allowing you to squeeze or zoom any key or full screen image.
• Each MLE features five comprehensive matte generators, two of which incorporate
advanced
wash capability.
• Full preview capability is provided.
Advanced Copy and Swap Functions
The following convenient copy and swap functions are available as standard:
• Copy MLE — allows you to copy the contents of an MLE to another MLE location on
the switcher.
• Copy/Swap Key — allows you to copy or swap the contents of a keyer with another key
location (in the same MLE, or on a different MLE).
• Copy Matte — allows you to copy the contents of a matte generator to any other matte
location.
• Copy Wipe — allows you to copy a wipe pattern (and all wipe pattern modifiers) from
one MLE to another.
Pattern Generators
Each switcher includes (as standard) both primary and secondary pattern generators that are used for
wipe transitions and preset patterns:
• Synergy 2 : Four primary and two secondary
• Synergy 3 : Six primary and three secondary
• Synergy 4 : Eight primary and four secondary
The primary generators are equipped with extensive traditional, rotary, and matrix wipes. The
secondary generators provide additional traditional patterns.
