Main Features
Eight channels of video input
The V-8 provides video input connectors for eight video (composite) channels and four S-video channels. Of the
input channels 1–8, S-video input is available only for channels 5–8.
* If S-video and video (composite) are both input to a channel 5–7, the input from the S-video connector will take priority and
will be selected automatically. Likewise, if S-video and RGB signals from a computer are both input to channel 8, the S-video
will take priority.
Computer input jacks with built-in scan converters
A built-in scan converter supports RGB signals (VGA to UXGA) from a computer. The incoming RGB signal is
converted to a video signal. By key-compositing a computer screen with a video image, you can use this as a titler.
* There are two computer input connectors. A switch on the operating panel allows one of the two to be selected.
Two independent frame synchronizers
Even if an unstable video signal is input, the internal frame synchronizer can correct the synchronization signal.
This allows you to use a variety of video without worrying about noise caused by unstable synchronization signals.
Monitor out connectors for eight channels
An independent monitor out connector is provided for each video input channel 1–8.
* If both S-video and video (composite) signals are being input to channels 5–7, or if both an S-video signal and a computer
output signal are being input to channel 8, the input from the S-video connector will take priority, and will be sent from monitor
out. The input signal from the computer will also be sent from monitor out as a video signal.
High-quality digital effects
Digitally processed effects are built in. You can apply a variety of high-quality effects including Picture In Picture,
Mirror, Multi, Feedback, and Afterimage. In addition to the familiar Mix and Wipe transitions, new transitions such
as FAM (Full Additive Mix), NAM (Non-Additive Mix), Slide, and Stretch are also provided.
Simple and customizable operation
Switching between video sources and mixing them is easy. The T-bar type video fader can be attached in either
a horizontal or vertical orientation according to your preference. Sliders are used for effect controllers, allowing
you to operate the V-8 like a DJ mixer.
Synchronize with music
By pressing the TAP button in time with the beat of the music, you can switch images or control effects in
synchronization with the tempo (BPM).
Control via MIDI
MIDI connectors (IN, OUT/THRU) are provided, allowing you to switch images or control effects by controlling the
V-8 from an external MIDI device. You can also control an external device from the V-8.
In addition, the V-8 can be used in conjunction with V-LINK compatible audio/video equipment to easily create
video output that is linked with the expressive elements of a performance.
