•VERTEX combines the advantages of both worlds: Video editing /compositing and lighting console programming.
Choose you preferred workflow - or efficiently combine both.
•By default VERTEX is set to Value Mode: Each value change in the setting of a project item has a direct effect. Particular settings are animatable with keyframes.
•In Programmer Mode your property changes are stored temporarily in a programmer cache allowing you to program whole scenes, make adjustments and save all settings as the final result.
Value Mode
•Default mode in VERTEX
•Global values for each clip container and item. A value or property change in the Inspector will take effect for the entire duration of the sequence.
•Automation for settings & values is achieved via keyframes or script commands.
Programmer Mode
•The Programmer is a temporary buffer that caches your value changes. VERTEX holds these changes until you save or clear them.
•Property changes for Clip Containers and items are eventually saved as keyframes in the project only after you click the SAVE button in the Programmer window.
•When you store a Programmer list, VERTEX automatically creates keyframes.
•You can clear, revert or just update single parameters and values in your scene.
•You can work on a whole scene, make changes and only store the final result. People from the world of lighting consoles might be familiar with this workflow.
