Description

The new generation of anti-aliased character generators, paint boxes and DVE's require a truly linear keyer to take advantage of the clean edges produced by this equipment. The superb keying capability of Masterkeymakes possible a virtually seamless inlay when keying these pre-filtered sources into program video. With Masterkey's unique combination of key gain and key slope controls, any degree of transparency may be achieved. Masterkey will also accept the linear key output of modern color matting systems to produce immaculate inlays of RGB sources.
