Storing Device Presets

For device presets, store and manage the connection information of external devices used for capturing or exporting (cameras, decks, web cameras, microphones, and input/output hardware products) as the presets. By using the device presets stored, capturing and exporting operations can be performed smoothly.

Be sure to register device presets before capturing or tape output.

For details on the settings, see the Hardware Setting Guide.

External equipment in which file-based video or audio are recorded (removable media such as CD/DVD, SD memory card) are not required to be stored as device presets, as the files can be stored to EDIUS using the bin or source browser.
If you use a hardware product by a manufacturer other than Grass Valley, settings besides for EDIUS may be required. For details, visit the Grass Valley website or see the instruction manual attached to your product.
