Chapter 6, Setting Up Realtime Effects with Adobe Premiere
• Scope View Displays the Matrox scopes. You can change the settings to
select which scopes you want to see, and how you want them to appear by
clicking the button on the right side of the
Scope View page:
As you move your mouse within each monitor (vectorscope or waveform),
you’ll see a crosshair at your chosen position, and the values at that position
are shown in the top right corner of the monitor.
¥Tip Double-click or drag the Scope View tab to display the Matrox scopes in a
separate window that you can move and resize. This also allows you to keep
Image View open at the same time.
Scope definitions
There are four different monitors to help you analyze your video clips:
•
Vectorscope Shows the phase and amplitude of the color components of
your video signal. Standard “targets” (small boxes) on the vectorscope
correspond to the six colors in a standard color bar pattern (red, green, blue,
yellow, cyan, and magenta). Color bars are usually analyzed with the
vectorscope. By analyzing color bars from your source video on the
vectorscope, you can make adjustments as needed to calibrate your video.
For details on how to calibrate your video, see “Calibrating video using color
bars” on page 113.
•
YC Waveform Shows a representation of the combined luminance (Y)
and chrominance (C) of your video. For information on interpreting the YC
waveform results, see “Ensuring legal colors for broadcast” on page 114.
•
Y Waveform Shows only the luminance (Y) values of your video, with the
chrominance removed (as if your clip was in black and white).
