DME Wipes
DME Wipes
A DME wipe is a wipe transition that uses a DME effect to change from one
video image to the next.
There are two types of DME wipe: those which can be selected for a normal
transition, and those which can be selected for an independent key transition.
For independent key transitions, see page 35.
Note
To carry out DME wipes requires the BKDS-9470 DME Board Set.
Types of DME Wipe Pattern
The patterns used for a DME wipe fall into two broad classes.
Preset patterns: predetermined fixed patterns
User programmable DME patterns: patterns which you can create using
keyframe effects
DME wipe execution mode and pattern numbers that can be used
There are two DME wipe execution modes, depending on the number of DME
channels available: one-channel mode and two-channel mode. The pattern
numbers that can be used in these modes are as follows.
DME wipe pattern groups
The patterns used in DME wipes fall into the following groups.
For each group (excluding user programmable DMEs), for schematic patterns
and numbers, see the appendix “DME Wipe Pattern List” (Volume 2). The
black part of the pattern represents the old video, and the white part the new
video, with the wipe taking place in the direction of the arrow.
