A powerful tool that opens up a whole world of creative video possibilities.
The V-4 is a 4-channel video mixer made for
portable or fixed installation use. It is ideal for use in nightclubs,
places of worship, theatres, and other live performances. The V-4 video
mixer also has MIDI in/out/through, for realtime or sequenced control
of video sources with effects and transitions.
Video mixer/switcher with 4-channel input
The
V-4 is equipped with 4 composite (RCA) inputs plus 2 S-video (Y/C)
inputs. It offers scene transition of the 4 video sources with
dissolve, wipes (about 200 variations), and switching. The V-4 outputs
the same video source to all 3 jacks (Composite x 2, S-video x 1), for
simultaneous monitoring and displaying, without resorting to external
distribution boxes. The V-4 comes with over 200 transition effects of
all types, including hard edge, luminance, multi-border, sliding, and
soft edge types.
Professional video quality
The
input video sources are processed completely in the digital domain, and
give professional video quality (13.5MHz, 8-bit, 4:2:2, DV quality).
Ideal for use on large screens, and because the V-4 internal processing
is digital there is no quality loss.
2-channel TBC/frame synchronizer
The
input sources go through independent 2-channel TBC (Time Base
Correction) circuits to correct the time code, independent 2-channel
frame synchronizers are also applied to the 2 sources at this stage.
These processes enable smooth transitions and dissolves, and ensuring
stable images all the time.
Independent 2-channel digital effects
V-4
features independent 2-channel video effects that include a rich
selection of digital effects (refer to spec sheet). The V-4 also
features composition effects such as picture-in-picture, chroma-key,
and luminance-key. The effects are recallable by a single button press.
Professional T-bar video fader
Professional-use
T-Bar cross fades for quick and intuitive operation. A V-4 innovation
is that you chose to attach the fade however you like, either,
vertically as standard for video mixer, or horizontally as a DJ mixer
fader. The fader resolution has over 100 steps and offers extremely
smooth transitions. Its metal body as well as its fader is strong and
durable to be used in your active performance.
Easy operation
V-4
is designed for its functions and operations to be clear from the front
panel. Because it is simple to use its easy-to-use operation will
enhance your realtime performance. Most of the V-4 functions can be
selected and controlled without resorting to the manual.
Preview function and on-screen menu
The
preview function is controlled by the source selection button, and
enables the user to monitor each of the input sources 1-4 or the output
source before transition, to a single preview monitor, no more multiple
preview monitors! You can control V-4's major functions (Ex. effect
selection, MIDI input setting, etc.) from the dedicated preview screen
using the convenient on-screen menu. This is separate from the output
to the main outs, so you can view it anytime you want.
Convenient user memory function
V-4's
User memory function allows you to memorize and conveniently recall the
panel settings such as effect assignment to each button. The memory is
saved even while the power is off, so you can store the frequently-used
setting. Maximum 8 configurations.
A/V connection sync with MIDI
The
V-4 features video transition/effects that can be synchronized with
MIDI. The BPM (beat per minute) of transition/effects can be made to
follow the beat of a music track by hitting the tap button (TAP
function). The functions of V-4 can also be controlled via MIDI
equipment such as a MIDI keyboard controller.
