The word monitor comes from the Latin monēre, meaning to warn, but has taken on additional meaning since Roman times. As a verb, these include such connotations as keeping an eye on something, and checking continually. As a noun, we understand it to mean devices that permit one to do just that.

As you would expect, your Vizrt system provides extensive and versatile monitoring: Just what is needed to control your live productions. Monitoring features can also warn you of conditions that might affect output quality, as well as providing access to adjustments providing quality control and creative alternatives.

Among others you will find Proc Amp, LiveMatte, Hotspot, Tracking and Edge controls (to give some of these the attention they deserve, they are treated individually in Input Configuration and elsewhere).
