Wild Vision's Chroma-Genlocks allow you to overlay and record to video any computer graphics. This has many uses in creating, for example, effective presentations and documentaries, promotional videos, computer animation incorporating live video, professional quality titling to videos and many other applications. You can overlay colour graphics from the computer onto a colour video signal to create exactly the result you want. The combined output can be recorded to video or displayed on a video-compatible monitor.

Chroma-Genlock expansion cards are supplied as a package with SideShow and Overlay software. SideShow is the brand new titling facility written especially for the Chroma-Genlock by Computer Concepts. It acts as a flexible medium for taking text, draw objects and sprites in draw files and overlaying them, either as full screen or selectively onto video. It provides scaling, sequencing, looping, screen blanking and scrolling. Overlay meanwhile is the utility which controls the overlay and interlace status of the desktop.

When ordering, it is vital to indicate which computer the genlock card is to be installed in. Please note that the Chroma-Genlock requires adaptors for use with the A5000.
