At the top of the R-26 are OMNI (omnidirectional) & XY (directional) stereo mic pairs, which not only provide pro-level sound, but also contribute to the unit’s impressive styling. To maximize their sound-collecting characteristics, we thoroughly studied the optimum shapes, positions, & angles of the mics. The OMNI mics are entirely enclosed in a mesh & optimized to faithfully capture sounds down to super-low frequencies. The XY mics have been given ample space at the back of the unit, maximizing their performance. in addition, the mics are laid out in a 90° configuration to create a natural stereo image. This ensures that your recordings will be clear, expansive, & true to the recording environment.

See the SD Mixer Comparison. Main Features Video Mixer / Switcher with 4ch input Independent 2-channel TBC / Frame Synchronizer Independent 2-channel Digital Effects Professional quality T-Bar Video Fader Easy Operation Beat Synchronization between Audio & Video Over 200 Transition Effects Best Video Product for 2004. 2004 Review The compact video mixer that&0s full of features Video Mixer / Switcher with 4-ch input V-4 is equipped with four composite (RCA Pin) inputs plus two S-video (Y/C) inputs. V-4 offers scene transition of the four video sources with Dissolve, Wipes (with a total of about 200 variations), & Switching. The V-4 outputs the same video source to all the three jacks (Composite x 2, S-video x 1), for simultaneous monitoring & displaying, without resorting to external distribution boxes. Over 200 Transition Effects See Listings Here Hard Edge Types Luminance Types Multi Border Types Sliding Types Soft Edge Types Professional Video Quality The input video sources are processed completely in the digital domain, & give professional video quality (13.5 M Hz, 8-bit, 4:2:2, DV quality). ideal to be used on large screens, & because the V-4 internal processing is digital there is no quality loss. Independent 2-channel TBC / Frame Synchronizer The input sources go through independent 2-channel TBC (Time Base Correction) circuits to correct the time code, independent 2-channel Frame Synchronizers are also applied to the two sources at this stage. These processes enable smooth transitions & Dissolves, & ensuring stable images all the time. Independent 2-channel Digital Effects V-4 features independent 2-channel Video effects that include a rich selection of digital effects (refer to spec sheet). The V-4 also features composition effects such as Picture-in-Picture, Chroma-key, and Luminance-key. The effects are recallable by a single button press. Professional-use T-Bar Video Fader Professional-use T-Bar cross fades for quick & intuitive operation. A V-4 innovation is that you chose to attach the fade however you like, either, vertically as standard for video mixer, or horizontally as a DJ mixer fader. The fader resolution has over 100 steps & offers extremely smooth transitions. Its metal body as well as its fader is strong & durable to be used in your active performance. Easy Operation V-4 is designed for its functions & operations to be clear from the front panel. Because it is simple to use its easy-to-use operation will enhance your realtime performance. Most of the V-4 functions can be selected & controlled without resorting to the manual. On Screen Menu Preview Function & On-Screen Menu The preview function is controlled by the source selection button, & enables the user to monitor each of the input sources 1-4 or the output source before transition, to a single preview monitor, no more multiple preview monitors! You can control V-4&0s major functions (Ex. Effect selection, MIDI input setting, etc.) from the dedicated preview screen using the convenient On-Screen Menu. This is separate from the output to the main outs, so you can view it anytime you want. Convenient User Memory Function V-4&0s User memory function means that you can memorize & conveniently recall the panel settings, such as effect assignment to each button. The memory is saved even while the power is off, so you can store the frequently-used setting. Maximum eight configurations. Synchronization between Audio & Video/ Connection with MIDI Equipment The V-4 features video transition/effects that can be synchronized with MIDI. The BPM (beat per minute) of transition/effects can be made to follow the beat of a music track by hitting the tap button (TAP function). The functions of V-4 can also be controlled via MIDI equipment such as a MIDI keyboard controller. If you have the optional PR-80, various visual performances become even more creative by mixing the DV-7PR&0s numerous video clips with the V-4&0s visual effects, all with realtime transitions & composition. Configuration Examples Live Production/ Church Here we have 4 inputs
- 2 live cameras, text, still or video input coming from a laptop & all high quality video playback coming from the PR-80. By using a luminance key with the text input (e.g., Power Point, Media Shout, etc.) from the computer, you can overlay song lyrics, notes or messages over any of your other 3 inputs. Of the three outputs, 2 are being sent to the house projectors & the third one is recording the event to a VCR. At all times you can independently monitor your inputs and effects via the preview monitor. Note: S-video output or RGB-to-video scan converter is required to connect a computer to the V-4. Multi-Camera Live Event In this example we have 4 live cameras being mixed to 2 house projectors, bringing image magnification (IMAG) to the room. We are also recording the event to a VCR as well. In a non-IMAG setting (i.e., school, courtroom, community TV) you would not send the output to projectors and simply record the event. At all times you can independently monitor your inputs & effects via the preview monitor. Corporate Event Often at corporate or church events, the playback material is on different media (VHS, DVD, mini DV, Betacam, etc.). In this example we have 4 inputs
- 1 live camera & 3 different playback devices. The V-4 makes it easy to mix between material coming from a variety of sources. Of the three outputs, only two are being used
- 1 is being sent to a lobby plasma & 1 is being sent to the house projector. At all times you can independently monitor your inputs & effects via the preview monitor. This setup can be greatly simplified by using a PR-80 to playback all video material as shown in Example 1 above. VJ/ Club Setup Having instant access to video material along with transitions & effects is the key to any visually stimulating display. In this example the VJ has material playing on the 2 DVDs, the VCR as well as their PC. The V-4 allows the real-time manipulation & transitioning between all of these inputs. The outputs are doing to the LCDs or plasma around the room or in the private boxes as well as to projectors throughout the house. At all times you can independently monitor your inputs & effects via the preview monitor. As in the previous example, this setup can be greatly simplified by using a PR-80 to playback all video material as shown in Example 1 above. Note: S-video output or RGB-to-video scan converter is required to connect a computer to the V-4. Independent Multi-Camera Shoot with IMAG This example combines Example 1 & 2 above. It means that you can use & be recording a 4 camera shoot via the first V-4 but also overlay text or playback other video material via the second V-4 for room image magnification (IMAG). This configuration means that you can keep shooting the event (via your 4 cameras) independently of what is happening on the house screens. For example, your house screens could go to black or perhaps playback a clip (via the PR-80)
- but your cameras could still be capturing audience or stage reaction. Conversely you can decide to use your multi-camera feed from the first V-4 for IMAG. At the same time, you can record the IMAG output via the 2nd V-4. At all times you can independently monitor all inputs & effects via the preview monitors.
