5.1 INTRODUCTION
Channels of the XT series servers can be ganged together in a specific style
called FILL & KEY. This mode manages assignments of clips, and forces them to
recall to the appropriate channels, so as to allow the operator to perform
synchronised clip recalls in a Fill & Key scenario (sometimes called FILL & Matte)
