Applying A Dme Effect To A Key - Sony DVS-9000 User Manual

Applying a DME Effect to a Key

Note
For one M/E bank, DME effects (including DME wipes) can be used in up to
two places on the dedicated interface and in only one place on the SDI interface
simultaneously.
When combining the SDI interface with the dedicated interface, you can apply
DME effects to a maximum of three keys. (Requires a setting in setup.)
For details, see "Interfacing With External Devices (Device Interface Menu)"
in Chapter 19 (Volume 3).
