Frequently Asked Questions
Can you modify or adjust the GlobeCaster Switcher effects?
Yes. Each effect has its own property effects window. By simply right-clicking
the mouse on the effect, an
effect properties
window opens. Effect attributes
which can be changed include: border, duration, fade in and out, gradient,
direction, etc. Not all attributes are adjustable for every effect. The buttons
will appear gray for attributes with fixed values.
Can you label individual video inputs (Cam1, VCR1, etc.) on the Switcher busses
for easy identification?
Yes. GlobalStreams has included “virtual masking tape” on the GlobeCaster
Switcher interface so you can type in a name for each input.
Does GlobeCaster perform strobing effects?
Yes. Strobing is turned on and controlled from the GlobeCaster Switcher
interface. Strobing intervals are set with the keyboard or mouse by number of
fields to hold between 1 and 999.
On the optional audio sub-system, are balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA)
connectors available?
Yes. Two types of 16-bit automated digital audio mixers are available, both
with eight inputs and stereo output. They are identical except for their input
and output connectors.
What can the optional audio mixers do?
The optional GlobeCaster audio mixer provides eight inputs and stereo output
with a 3 band parametric equalizer, stereo panning, level indicators, plus trim,
solo and mute controls, plus effects send outputs with return inputs, program
and monitor outputs. When working with Editor, audio levels can be
automated and animated for split edits, cross-fades, dips, etc.
