Originally It was a separate frame but was integrated with the mixing electronics. Here is a poor photo of the mixing electronics and switcher rack. We only used the colorizer as a color background generator but if you fed video into the unit, you could get more or less a different color at different luminance levels. I don’t think I saw us use it other than playing around. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

Some modules were bought and others were hand made from the schematics. I wish I would have kept the schematics because a single module was drawn on one sheet of paper about 20 feet long. Giant transistors. I had a Riker sync generator at home but didn’t keep any of it. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
