Processing palettes
Palettes Tab
The 'palettes' tab contains the following processing controls.
Color Generators
Your ATEM switcher has two color matte generators which can be configured from the color
generators palette using a color picker or by setting hue, saturation, and luminance levels.
Upstream Key 1
The switcher's upstream keyer can be configured from the upstream key 1 palette. Within the
keyer palette, the keyer can be configured as a luma key, chroma key, pattern key or DVE.
Thetype of key available will also depend on if the DVE is available. The upstream key 1 palette
will display all the parameters that are available to configure the keyer. More information on how
to use upstream keyers is included later in this manual.
Transitions
The transitions palette is where you can configure the parameters of each transition style.
Forexample, for the dip transition the palette has a drop down menu where you can select the
dip source and for the wipe transition the palette displays all the available wipe patterns. There
are lots of variations of transitions, and a large number of transitions can be created by
combining settings and features in the transitions palette.
NOTE It’s worth noting that simply selecting a specific style of transition in this palette
will only adjust the settings for these transitions, and you still need to select the style
of transition you want to perform in the transition control section on the software, your
switcher's built in control panel, or an additional hardware panel. The software and
hardware panels work together and mirror all settings, so you can use any combination
you like!
Downstream Keys
The ATEM has two downstream keyers which can be configured from the downstream keys
palette. The palette has drop down boxes for selecting the fill and key signals to the keyer, plus
sliders to set the pre multiplied key clip and gain values, and mask settings.
