MisMatcher01
About
The MisMatcher01 is an analog video effects unit comprised of a sync mixer
and an amplifier. It’s intended to work in tandem with another control board
trough a connection header. The sync mixer extracts the sync pulses from a
video signal and mixes them with another video signal. It’s used to restore the
sync timing after modifying a video signal or to re-sync a video signal with
another video. The amplifier clips the video signal with a variable threshold
limit, providing a monochromatic black and white signal.

Assembly
Assembly the board with the provided components following the bill of
materials.
Install transistors Q1 and Q2 as shown on the PCB. Install Q3 and Q4 on the
opposite position shown on the PCB.
Install CR1 with the flat face facing C11 and C13.
Leave C8, C9, C10 and S1 empty.
Clean the flux residue left behind.

PatchModule01
About
The PatchModule01 is a 3.5 mm patch cable control module for the
MisMatcher01. It works as the user interface, providing input and output RCA
jacks, 3 mixers and an easy way to combine different video signals with the
different functions of the MisMatcher01. The 3.5 mm stackable patch cables
are needed but not included.

Assembly
Start by soldering the red 8-pin female header.
Solder the two 220
F
electrolytic capacitors, the 270
resistor and LED.
Solder the remaining components. If you have any trouble fitting the RCA
jacks and potentiometers to the PCB, please use a plier to straighten out the
component’s leads. Beware that two of the 3.5 mm jacks have had a specific
pin removed in order to fit in the PCB.
Clean the flux residue left behind. Finish off by soldering the two 12 mm spring
loaded SMD pin on the back. Make sure they are centred on the pad and
that they make contact with the resistor underneath on the MisMatcher01
board when assembled.

Patching Examples
Cross Dissolve
Video Input: A and B
Video Output: C
Connect source A to the fixed end of potentiometer A. Connect source B to
the other fixed end of the same potentiometer. Connect the potentiometer
wiper to the output C. Rotate the potentiometer and the video output will
cross fade between A and B, loosing sync in between.
Attenuator
Video Input: A
Video Output: C
Connect the source A to the fixed end of potentiometer A. Connect the
other fixed end to the ground jack. Connect the potentiometer wiper to C.
This will create a voltage divider, reducing the signal intensity, loosing detail,
colour and sync in the process.

Cross Dissolve with Sync Lock
Video Input: A and B
Video Output: C
Connect source A to the fixed end of potentiometer B. Connect source B to
the other fixed end of the same potentiometer. Connect the potentiometer
wiper to Buffer In. Connect the video source whose sync you want to restore
(A or B) to Sync In. Connect Buffer Out to the Output C. Rotating the
potentiometer will output a cross dissolve of the two sources, but the sync of
one of them is maintained.

FREEDOM ENTERPRISE
Negative Black and White with Sync Restoration
Video Input: A
Video Output: C
Connect A to Amp In. Connect Amp Out to Buffer In. Connect Buffer Out to
C. Connect A to Sync In. Turn the Threshold potentiometer to control the
picture contrast. Pass any of the previous connection trough a potentiometer
to create different effects. You can also combine the final result with the
original input trough a potentiometer.
