I am considering the purchase of the GVP G-Lock. The advert I've seen says that it has an intuition-based software control panel. Does this mean that the genlock is not usable with software that takes over the machine, thereby preventing it from multi-tasking? Regards, Shraddhan from the UK

Shraddhan, You can sometimes use the genlock with non-multi-taskig software, but you will almost certainly have limited access, if any, to the features of the G-Lock. The G-Lock software can be opened without a user interface and accessed via hotkeys and/or AREXX. Your titling software will determine the compatibility limits with the G-Lock. Most titling programs will have direct support fo the G-Lock (such as Scala) or at least give you access to the hotkeys and AREXX port. We do not have a list of compatible titling software, as non-multitasking software, by definition, is not compatible with the G-Lock software. Contact the manufacturer of your software for more assistance. GVP TECH
