Magic DaVE

Our main vision mixer. With extensive effects, but no Chroma keying.

Panasonic Max

A vision & Audio Mixer

  • Chroma & Luma keying.
  • Basic image manipulation
    • Multiples of images (1,4,9,16)
    • Color correction
  • 4 audio inputs
    • Can do "audio follow"

Krammer PiP

  • Picture in Picture
  • 2 in, 1 out (Composite or S-vid)
  • Format convert (PAL, NSTC, SECAM...)
  • picture size & location control via panel
  • all controlable over serial

Net Mux

  • 2, 16x1 switchers for video
  • 2, 16x1 swithers for stereo audio
  • Dual PSU
    • one PSU in maintainance
  • each 16x1 "layer" cannot talk to other layers, only the panel.

DaVE P169

An 8x4 Video switcher, with 8 inputs, and four duplicated outputs.

  • 'Input 5' brightens anything inputted to it
  • Output B is slightly weak
    • and DaVE 2 is VERY picky as to what it eats, (DaVE will herringbone when unhappy) so bear that in mind

VT 8x4 Video Switcher

(Also referred to as 'VT P169' because it replaced the actual 'VT P169' which was identical to the current DaVE P169)

Camera / Rifle-Mic

After many problems with using the rifle mic with Sony HDV and Canon DV cameras, this page has been created.

  • WidgetBoxes - a guide to YSTV's collection of wierd and wonderful little boxes that convert between video formats, split video and the like. A solution to (almost) any connection problem can be found here!
  • VideoRecorders - otherwise known as VT Decks, these are all the tape machines used in and around the station.
