On occasion, societies doing performances in Central Hall will request that YSTV provide a simple video monitoring and feedback system for them - so the cast on stage can see the Musical Director (conductor) giving them cues, and often so the MD can see the action on the stage.

*A 1-channel video DA - while the feed from the stage to the MD needs only one camera connected directly to a monitor, the MD feed to the stage needs two monitors, one above each of the [[w:Vomitorium|vomitoria]] (voms). To divide one camera feed into two screens, you need a DA (and power cable). | *A 1-channel video DA - while the feed from the stage to the MD needs only one camera connected directly to a monitor, the MD feed to the stage needs two monitors, one above each of the [[w:Vomitorium|vomitoria]] (voms).
