DMEs
Overview
DME (Digital Multi Effects) allows you to add three-
dimensional effects such as image movement, rotation,
magnification and shrinking, as well as a wide variety of
special effects.
Up to four DME channels are available. Multiple DME
channels can be combined, which allows you to create
advanced effects with more complexity.
About DME boards

This board is an HD format (1080P, 1080PsF, 1080i,
720P) DME board.

• The maximum number of DME boards that can be
installed on each switcher and the maximum number of
DME channels available are as follows.
a) Maximum of 4 boards in combination with XKS-8470
b) Maximum of 2 channels on the XKS-8470
• If there is a mix of both XKS-8470 and XKS-8475 in a
single switcher, only the DME function of the
XKS-8475 is available.
• If Ext Out is set as an M/E dedicated output on the
XVS-8000, DME effects cannot be used in 4K format.
