TouchDirector 4.0 now fully animated SuperSource animations

PostSat Jun 12, 2021 10:12 am

TouchDirector 4.0 release with fully animated SuperSource and DVEK Multi PiP compositions!

With a revolutionary way to achieve smoother Multi PiP Animations on ATEM with iOS Devices!

We continued developing of our Multi PIP tool and are happy to release the “Animated Multi PiP” version of our TouchDirector ATEM control apps.

With TouchDirector you can control every SuperSource as well as every DVE key on ATEM switchers. You can save your Multi PIP composition to your iCloud or other cloud services or share it with other iOS devices using TouchDirector. You can load compositions instantly or use Quick Compositions buttons to prepare your upcoming Multi PIP events, as you would work having multiple SuperSources.

Every changeover between Multi PIP compositions can now be fully animated. You can choose changeover with or without animation.
You can zoom up and down every single box e.g., to bring a talk guest from a discussion into front and back to the composition.
Simply switch on the “single box zoom button”, and every box tapped by your finger will expand or collapse again. Only with a touch on the visualized Multi PIP tool in the app!
Another useful function is to send all PIP boxes out of the screen after preparing.
Then bring only the background on air and all boxes with a quick composition button back to the screen - an amazing effect!

The quality of TouchDirector animations is not depending on network quality or iPad processor power. We optimized the box ratios, moving, zooming, and cropping to avoid cropping caused overlapping of boxes in animations. The compositions included are proven in real production events and have been tested with the full line of ATEM switchers.

TouchDirector gives the user full freedom to animate between every possible composition or to zoom single boxes to full and go back to your composition.

Besides that, we analyzed which animation time is good for showing least stuttering in animations for every frame rate. Therefore, it’s not necessary to test different animation times for a new animation.
Simply touch a quick composition with your desired composition and that’s it!

Long press on a quick composition button opens the settings area for this composition. Here you can preset a video source for every box and the background.
Up to 6 Quick Composition* buttons give you the freedom to prepare some Multi PiP scenes and bring them on air at a desired moment.
* number of Quick Composition buttons depends on the iOS devices screen size!

Like before you can also change the video source of a box while your Multi PiP is on air.
Useful to switch changing talk participants or to switch between live cameras in a desired PiP box.
This release is free for existing users!

TouchDirector full version gives you the ability to work with animated compositions on ATEM Mini Extreme, ATEM 2/4 ME and Constellation. With all other ATEMs which contain neither SuperSource nor more than 1 DVE Key you can use the animation with the available single DVE Key.
TouchDirector Mini gives you the ability to work with animated compositions on ATEM Mini Extreme and to use the single DVE Key on all other “not Extreme” ATEM types.

Or you can choose the TouchDirector PiP app, to set up a separate Multi PIP workplace with your iOS device. TouchDirector PiP supports the same SuperSource and DVEK animations as TouchDirector.

You can animate changeovers between compositions, as also single boxes to zoom it full and back. You can also send all boxes out of the screen and bring it back after going on Air with the background. An amazing effect!
