Functioning

Live2Edit Box

During the recording of an event with a multicam system, Live2Edit captures the control signals from the video switcher (production truck, studio, mobile control desk) and the corresponding timecode. Immediately after the end of the recording it generates an edit sequence for a post-production system; all the camera feeds are grouped in the sequence (optionally with PGM) and all edits and transitions* of the live mix are available for immediate processing – as though the sequence had been created directly in the composer by a cutter. (* Transition type depends on the respective system.)

Live2Edit Monitor

Each Live2Edit-Box handles up to 20 cameras or external feeds; however, by coupling several devices the number of sources is unlimited.

If required, markings (for highlights, corrections, etc.) can be entered by the director, programme manager or producer at any point using marker buttons. These then appear in the timeline of the post-production system as (coloured) markers.

In January 2021, we added some functions to Live2Edit that our customers wanted:

  • Camera control display now optionally in 2, 3, 4 or 5 columns for easier visual comparison with preview monitors
  • 3 user timers with start / pause / stop / reset functions
  • 16 markers instead of 8
  • 4 marker buttons can be switched on and off individually
  • storable marker sets

Live2Edit is compatible with

  • AVID MEDIA COMPOSER™
  • ADOBE PREMIERE™
  • DAVINCI RESOLVE™

Markers

The whys and wherefores

Live2Edit has 16 markers in 8 different colours, 4 of which can also be controlled via external buttons.

The 4 external marker buttons can be inserted at any point in the production set (singly or in combination).

All markers (including the buttons) can be individually named and controlled via the Live2Edit software.

Four typical scenarios:
  1. Live recording of an event to be broadcast with a time delay. There are only a few hours for correcting any camera and cutting errors.
    > One marker button on the vision mixer:
    • The director marks camera and editing errors during the live recording

    After the recording, the marker points can be accessed directly in the timeline and the corrections made immediately. It's no longer necessary to note down time codes during the live event and to waste time searching for the errors.

  2. Recording a show to be broadcast a week later.
    > The director, programme manager and editor each has his own marker button:
    • The director uses his button to highlight camera or cutting errors
    • The programme manager uses his button to mark highlights for a teaser
    • The editor marks effects which need touching up

    The assistant director or programme manager uses software markers 5 - 8 to tag the start of

    • Song tracks
    • VTR feeds
    • Interviews etc.

    In this case, markers 1-4 are only enabled for the marker buttons - to prevent director's or programme manager's markers accidentally being set via the software

  3. The same scenario as in 2, but markers 1-4 are also enabled for the software and only 2 marker buttons are used. Accordingly, 6 markers can be set via the software.

    4.  

  4. Recording of various show blocks for an entertainment series.
    No marker buttons are used and markers 1-4 are enabled for the software, i.e. all 8 markers can be used by the assistant or an operator, e.g. for
    • Presenter blocks
    • VTR feeds
    • Interviews
    • Live footage
    • Music tracks
    • Audience shots
    • etc.

Our innovative Live2Editsystem is now also available in a rental version. This allows you to benefit from all the advantages (your live multicam stream in the timeline = considerably shorter post-production time = cost savings), but does away with the need to hire an operator from us. You can simply use the system yourself: Live2Edit is therefore even cheaper than before.
