TV One Adds Exciting New Transitions to Switchers

TV One has added a plethora of transitions to 9 of the C2-1000 and C2-2000 Switcher/Scalers

Erlanger, KY , February 2, 2007—TV One believes that everyone should have great switching transitions for their video production. So TV One has added some new and exciting special effect transitions to the C2-1000 series and C2-2000 series products. In addition to cuts, a wide variety of fades and transitions are now available.

The new transitions will fade the first video source to reveal black then fade back to the newly selected video source. The default background is black, but the color may be changed to any color. If the unit is set to Mix mode (like when keying or using PIP), the video is revealed during the fade out and fade in. This method provides the illusion of a true cross fade, even in single channel units.

The wipe transition has a choice of left to right, right to left, top to bottom, bottom to top, diagonal and diamond. The wipe size may be changed to create repeated versions of the transitions. This will give a “window blind” or diamond checkerboard effect. The first video source wipes off to reveal the background and then the newly selected source wipes on. The default background is black, but the color may be changed to any color. If the unit is set to Mix mode (like when keying or using PIP), the video is revealed during the fade out and fade in.

The units that will have these new transitions available are:

C2-1150 – a Down Converter with Genlock, Keying and PIP with a suggested retail price of $1,795
C2-1250 – an Up and Cross Converter with Genlock, Keying, PIP and Internal Audio Switching with a suggested retail price of $1,795
