Magic DaVE's are powerful full 3d Digital Video Effects mixers. We use them to switch between different things during a show - like mixing into a VT. Sometime, you may ask what the magic button does, these machines do actually have magic buttons. They do nothing useful - just for configuring menus... which dont really need configuring...

'''Warning''' Attempting to master all of DaVE's quirks and abilities is impossible, don't try it! Also, most of the effects are incredibly cheesey.

===Shots===
 
DaVE(s) can save settings in them. To do this, set up a shot as you want, like a PiP or a DVE thing. Then navigate to the next available sequence space, and click Save Shot. You can then use these settings on whatever is currently on the Progam and preview busees - i.e. it doesn't have to be the channel numbers you used when you saved the shot. To use the shot, hit "recall shot". DaVE will then Morph it's way to the saved settings, and increment the next shot counter (so if you press recall again, it will do the next saved shot....)
