To Set Up a Key on TouchDrive

The TouchDrive control panel has a dedicated Keyers area that allows you to quickly assign the key bus to a keyer, transition the key on or off-air, and see the status and configuration of each key on the ME.

  1. In the Keyers area, press the SEL button for the key you want to assign the key bus to.
    Tip: You can also tap the Key button on the row control menu and select the keyer you want to assign the row to.


    Tip: The menu follows the keyer selection and shows the setup menu for the key.
  2. Select the key type you want to assign to the keyer.
    • Self/Luma — press the SELF/LUMA user button. Refer to Self Key for more information.
    • Auto Select/Linear — press the AUTO/LINEAR user button. Refer to Auto Select Key for more information.
    • Chroma Key — select the chroma key as a source (CKX) on the key bus. The key bus is then assigned to that chroma keyer and you can select the source for the chroma key. The keyer switches to an auto select key when a chroma key is selected. Refer to UltraChrome 2 Chroma Key for more information.
    • DVE — press the DVE user button. Refer to DVE Keys (Fly Key) for more information.
  3. The display in the Keyer area shows how each keyer is currently configured.

    Note: The information will change depending on the type of key selected.
