Monitor Out Settings

This selection will show all the viewing options available. The button name will be changed to
'return' which you can click on to go back to the previous menu. Monitor out settings configure
the output from the 'monitor out' connector.
Monitor Highlight Level Control
This control adjusts the amount of highlight applied to the image viewed on the monitor output in
the areas where background mattes, garbage mattes, holdout mattes and layer mattes are used.
Monitor Setting Buttons
The monitor setting buttons allow you to change the matte view and select individual color
channels to view independently.
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.
