Using Stereo

If Stereoscopic Output is enabled for a project, stereo display output will be sent to the configured stereo display device (SDI or DVI) automatically.

 

Composition tracks V1 and V2 will both be sent to the display device as the left and right stereo channel.

 

ch-stereo_v1-v2

 

Stereo channel SDI output order :

 

Track

Stereo

SDI Output

V1

Left

A

V2

Right

B

 

dv_note

You can reverse this order via the toolbar button :

 

ch-stereo_multitrack-reverse-output-button

 

or by changing the general.prefs parameter :

 

reverseStereoOutput

 

This parameter is inside the IOCard section of the preference file.

Viewing

You can view and compare the two stereo channels by choosing a compare mode between the two tracks. Compare modes are described in the Comparison Mode section.

Multitrack Grading

You can grade both stereo channels at the same time (and apply notes to both channels) by enabling Multitrack Grading.

 

Switch to Memories mode :

 

ch-stereo_mems-mode

 

Then, switch to Shots mode and enable Multitrack Grading using the button shown below :

 

ch-stereo_multitrack-grading-button

 

Shots that are grouped into multitrack mode are shown with green triangles on their right-hand edge :

 

ch-stereo_shots-grouped

Multitrack shots shown in group

 

dv_note

Note that multitrack mode will only enable (on both tracks) if the two tracks are the same length.

 

The render indicator bar also shows the render status of each track separately :

 

ch-stereo_render-indicator

Each track now has an independent render status bar

 

Grades will now be applied to both the top and bottom tracks.

 

dv_note

A grade will only be applied to a monitored track : ch-export-track-monitor-on

Stereoscopic Depth Grading

ch-stereo_stereo-depth-grading-button

 

The Stereoscopic Depth Grading button will cause Pan, Tilt and Rotate Pan/Scan transforms to be applied normally on the top track but in reverse on the track below.

 

ch-stereo_pan-scan-tool

 

This can easily be seen in the track thumbnails as shown below :

 

ch-stereo_pan-reversed

Track thumbnails show that top track has positive pan. This is reversed on the bottom track.
