- Glitch Guild member Blank says: ““Luma mod” is a modification that allows you to use the video signal from the second channel as an insert of the superimpose function. In other words, mixer gains capability for full-fledged luma keying using two video signals. Modification does not result in a loss of any significant functionality. Originally, the WJ-MX10 allows you to select background color of superimpose function in two ways: using the “back colour” button and selecting the color with the knob, or by using the “white” button. Once modification is made, the “white” button turns it on. Selection of any background color is still possible using “back colour” and the selection knob.”

Typical issues:
- Channels turning black&white.
This problem is linked to aging components and affects many Panasonic mixers. Sometimes, just an adjustment of CT1/CT2 trimmers on the main board is required to restore proper operation. In other cases adjacent electrolytic capacitors have to be replaced. In the situation documented below, the defect disappeared after replacing capacitor C88 (channel B). After desoldering old capacitors it is necessary to clean the pcb - electrolyte leaking from damaged cap is conductive and may cause a short circuit resulting in missing color.
To reach the underside of the mainboard, shielding cage must be desoldered & disassembled.

Inputs:
- 4 x (Priority) S-Video (Y/C) - DIN
- 7 x Composite - BNC
- 2 x VGA (selectable) - 15-pin dsub
- MIDI - DIN
Outputs:
Master

- 1 x S-Video (Y/C) - DIN
Preview (For on screen menu and input monitoring)
Monitor
Other
Features:
- Some midi control
- BPM sync
- S-Video (Y/C) and VGA conversion to Composite via monitor outs
- Individual fades per channel
- T-bar can be rotated in any direction with just 4 easily accessible screws
Notes:
- IMPORTANT: If you pick one of these up, be sure to do a factory (p)reset via the menu, as it is possible to mess with the channel colours in the menu

This is much more than just the V-4 with a built-in touch screen. The software is more mature; and supports HDMI.
Inputs:
- Inputs 1-3 are Composite BNC or HDMI (480p/59.94)
- Input 4 can be used as ONE of:
- Composite
- S-video
- HDMI (1080-59.94p)
- RGBHV (up to 1920x1200/60hz) (via 15 pin D-sub aka VGA connector)
- Component with an additional breakout adapter (resolution?) (via 15 pin D-sub aka VGA connector)
Outputs:
- 1 Composite BNC
- 1 HDMI
- 1 HDM Preview Out (480 / 59.94p)
- Class Compliant USB Video at 720x480
- 1 Analog RGB / Component (via 15 pin D-sub aka VGA connector).
- 640 x 480, 800 x 600, 1024 x 768, 1280 x 768, 1280 x 1024, 1366 x 768, 1400 x 1050, 1600 x 1200, 1920 x 1200 The refresh rate for RGB format is 60 Hz at all resolutions when set to NTSC. When set to PAL, the rate is 50 Hz at underlined resolutions and 75 Hz at others.h
- The Interlaced/non-interlaced format for the HDMI output determines the type of output on the 15 pin D-sub connector.
- When an interlaced format is selected (on HDMI); Component is output on the DSUB15 connector.
- When a non-interlaced format is selected (on HDMI); RGB is output on the DSUB15 connector.
- Audio out on HDMI and USB (16bits/48 kHz / linear PCM)
Features:
- Midi IN, MIDI Out/Through. Some MIDI Control
- BPM sync
- Does this have upscaling?
Notes:
- Yes, although it’s complicated by the limited number of outputs.
- RGBHV to Component cable - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001O8C6HM
- The V-4EX isn’t a native HD switcher. CH 1–3 are SD only (480i/576i) and the mixer de-interlaces + frame-syncs everything to an internal 480/576p bus. The HDMI output format (480/576p, 720p, 1080p) is just a final-stage scaler. So the lowest latency is when you match the bus: feed SD into CH 1–3 and set MAIN OUT to 480/59.94p (or 576/50p). Forcing 720/1080 adds an extra frame at the output. CH4 (HDMI) also costs ~1 more frame than CH1–3. Net: CH1–3 ≈ 2 frames, CH4 ≈ 3 frames at 60p. Using “only one input” doesn’t bypass the frame sync/scaler—the pipeline is always engaged.

Features:
- 2 Bus mixer. 4 SD channels and 4 HD channels. SD channel output has it’s own HD channel making for 5 total channels. I english good?
Essentially this is a SD mixer that runs into a HD mixer. It’s awesome.
Notes:
Max VGA output resolution is smaller than max Composite output resolution.
Self-feedback: 4 WAYS TO FEED!
- S-Video out to S-video In
- SD Bnc out to SD BNC in
- HD BNC out to HD BNC In
- RGB VGA out to RGB VGA in
Due to the 2 mixer bus this unit has, SD feedback can run in-series to the HD channel feedback
