Pro Tips from Compix Experts
- Create your pre-roll announcements directly through your CG with the built-in timeline and Graph Mode for pinpoint accuracy.
Pre-roll announcements are the norm for any church projecting its message to their congregation. To captivate them, you need visually appealing pages that capture the imagination of many and hold the attention of most. If creating these announcements means you'll be spending time building your pages, rendering them for accuracy, exporting, and finally finding your file before playing it, then we've got news for you: no longer will you have to go that route if Compix Persona is in your midst.
With Compix Persona, you can add 3D real-time graphics and work in a timeline you are already familiar with. For the more advanced operators, our timeline gives you enhanced capabilities to adjust position, orientation, scale, and more, all with the X, Y, and Z axes. You also have the option to view your timeline in Graph Mode where each object can be manipulated exactly how you want it. Once finished, instead of exporting your work, simply play it. It's really that easy!- System of choice: Compix Persona
- Zoom in on your canvas and Page List thumbnails -- perfect for tight spaces and inaccurate praise music guidance.
- Your CG Operator is doing a great job during one of your worship songs. All slides in your Page List are in order and everything is going smoothly, until the lead singer skips the bridge and repeats the chorus. Chaos erupts through the studio control room. Even though the band is right on the beat, your CG Operator is stuck squinting at his Page List. "Everything is so small, how am I supposed to quickly thumb through dozens of pages when the band's already half way through the chorus?"
With Compix, there is no need to worry. You have a variety of options for viewing your Page List: List View displays pages by number with a description of each page and Thumbnail View allows you to completely re-size the page thumbnails with a click of your mouse. This makes searching through pages extremely simple -- and simple is what you need when the pressure is on.- System of choice: Compix Persona
- Play graphics with your numeric keypad for fast-paced action and reliability. Lead your worship leader and never get behind.
- When playing your graphics during the sermon or worship songs, using your mouse to play through the page sequence might be a bit unreliable, especially for those who lose their mouse pointer on occasion. On the other hand, a CG keyboard that has 200 more keys than you really need or want can be overwhelming. If you fall into either of these categories, you might be in for a treat with Compix. We give you the capability of playing, previewing, and expanding your files directly through the numeric keypad on your keyboard, eliminating the need to click through the Page List with your mouse.
- Press Enter once to bring Page 1 to Preview. Press Enter a second time to play Page 1 and simultaneously bring Page 2 to Preview. Continue this sequence by repeatedly pressing the Enter key. If you're on Page 20 and the Pastor wants a scripture verse that was back on Page 15, simply type in 15 and press Enter. Page 15 is brought to Preview and ready for your congregation. The simplest way to bring graphics on and off air is with the 0 and Del keys. Pressing the 0 key plays the page on your canvas to air and the Del key will take out the page currently on air.
- System of choice: ConverG1 HD
- Receive 10 years of unlimited software -- the perfect choice for busy studios.
During the week there is plenty of space, patience, and time to start your weekly graphics preparation. When it gets closer to Saturday night, your space becomes more crowded, loud, and uncontrollable. Now if you place your daily life into the equation as well as having started a few days later than you would have hoped, your peaceful solitude turns into a complete circus frenzy. With Compix, you can change all that. We can provide a Master Firmware Code for your main GenCG software. Now you can install GenCG Edit on your home computer or other PCs at church and get your work done there. Since the Master Firmware Code isn't matched to specific hardware, you can install it an unlimited amount of times and freely pass it off to your graphics crew. Now that you've created your files on another computer, simply export them to embed all animations and images into a single file format. Just save the exported file to a USB memory stick and transfer it to the Compix system through the unit's front USB connector. There is no need to access the back of the system! In addition to the 10 years of unlimited software, you also receive pre-created, fully functional templates, backgrounds, and fonts.- System of choice: Compix Spirit Package, available with any CynerG2, ConverG1, or LCGn system
