Using the Luma Key Function
The Luma key function allows the krossfour to ignore black, white, or grays in a video source, and allows the second channel to pass through in the black, white or gray areas�
1. Select two different input sources for channels 1 and 2 - make sure that channel 2 source has black, white or gray in it. 2. 3. 4. Move the cross-fader to the far-right position. Move the mode switch located on the front panel, to position 4, labeled L-K. Using the fine-tune knob located on the front panel, eliminate or key out black, white, or grays from the channel two source. You will see the image from channel 1 passing through, but only where black, white, or grays used to be.
