Matte View Range
The quality of images viewed on video monitors depends on the monitor's brightness and
contrast setup. In many situations, the detail information in the very dark and very bright
portions of an image is sacrificed so that the rest of the image can have a more pleasant look.
The levels in a matte image cover the whole brightness gamut and most of the matte controls
are adjusted while observing matte levels near the darkest or the brightest end.
For this reason, it is difficult to adjust the matte accurately while looking at a monitor and
observing the darkest and brightest portions of the images.
Enabling the 'matte view range' function will raise the black level and reduce the white level of
the matte signal so that detail information in the blackest and whitest sections of the matte can
be viewed accurately on a monitor.
Reducing the range of the matte on the monitor output has no effect on any internal processing
or the signal levels of the matte out.
Matte View Invert
When combined matte view or internal matte view is selected as the monitor output, the matte
polarity can be reversed by the matte view invert function.
Monitor Out RGB
When selected, the monitor output will show all three color channels of the image viewed.
Monitor Out Red, Green and Blue
All three color channels can also be viewed independently. When the respective color channel
button is enabled, the monitor output will only show that particular color channel as a black and
white image. This can be helpful to spot noise, which is predominantly in the blue channel.
Custom Monitor Output Menu
The monitor out section of the Smart Remote 4 touchscreen provides 6 soft buttons which
switch the view on Ultimatte 12's monitor output. These 6 soft buttons can be customized using
the 'custom monitor out' settings.
The first two soft buttons in the functions area of the touchscreen are labeled 'standard' and
'inputs'. These let you set the labels of the buttons to the standard default Ultimatte monitor
output buttons, or you can match the buttons to the respective inputs. When inputs is selected,
you can easily monitor every source by pressing the respective input button.
Below is the configuration for each setting:
