Kalypso Shortcomings
Yet - to - be - implemented features.
Various menus and buttons indicate features which were obviously planned, but are not yet available as at software version 10. Here is a sampling.
- "Undo" after E-Mem recall does not work.
- "Key Add" not implemented.
- "Key Drop" from main panel not implemented.
- Key Priority from main panel not implemented.
- Mask Preview not available.
- Timeline Partial Keyframing.
- 4:3 safe title (disabled button was present in a previous version).
- Alternate Preview modes, such as Auto, Follow PGM, All Keys.
- (E-Mem) interpolation Path for Auto Transitions. The Ampex Century had this 10 years ago.
- M/E Modes "Split Layered" and "Mix Minus".
- User Transitions other than mix thru video (for example, Non-Additive Mix).
- Effects Send for Background Layers.
- Learn User Wipes.
- Touchscreen green shortcut buttons on older Kalypso menu screens.
- Transform Corner Pin.
- Transform Final Locate.
- Transition Triger.
- Still Store Thumbnails.
- Matte Colour Picker.
- The ability to set the B-Background or the U2-Background behind outputs C and D.
- Those two mystery buttons above and to the right of the joystick.
- The extra three buttons allowed for in the Suite Prefs menu.
- Transform Control of External DVEs from the joystick. (Not sure if this was intended, but it would be useful.)
