To Apply a DVE to a Key (Fly Key)
Applying DVE effects to an existing key allows you to size and position an existing key in 2D space. Unlike the DVE key that uses the full raster image, you can fly an auto select key to create a bug or animated logo for branding.

  Once programmed, a custom control (CC) can be played back by pressing a button. The custom control can be as simple as triggering an output GPI pulse, or as complex as recalling a specific memory register on an ME, performing a switcher transition, and selecting a group of keys.
