Overview of the V-44SW
The V-44SW comprises two main sections, an “SD section,” used for managing all SD video, and an “HD/RGB
section,” which is used to mix all video signals.
Composite video signals and S-video signals are mixed in the SD section. The resulting mixes are sent to the HD/
RGB section and mixed with the HD and RGB video. The combined video is then output as the final output in either
HD or RGB format.
For more details about how the mixer is arranged, refer to the “Block Diagram” (p. 67).
Each of the V-44SW’ video inputs is called a “channel.” The SD and HD/RGB sections each feature Channels 1–4,
with each channel being independently controlled. Each “channel” is the equivalent of a “path” for the video signals.
In addition to the V-44SW’s normal mode of operation, there is another mode referred to as “
V-440HD Slave mode
.”
V-440HD Slave mode is used only when operation of the V-44SW is linked to an Edirol V-440HD. When switched to
V-440HD Slave mode, the V-44SW then functions as slave device to the V-440HD. You cannot use the V-44SW’s
panel controls to switch video while the unit is in V-440HD Slave mode.
For instructions on switching operational modes, refer to “Switching the V-44SW’s Operating Modes” (p. 44).
