any drawing object you create in ToasterCG, such as boxes, circles,

Digital Disk Recorder
This is one of the most powerful digital decks you'll get
your hands on. The Digi-Vid 2001 Digital Disk Recorder is a
key component in Video Toaster [2]'s tool chest, offering drag-and-drop
playback of any video clips or stills in your system. In and
out points can be quickly set for each clip, and the DDR can
be easily assigned to any input on your switcher. DDR's way-cool
Cue feature actually links the Deck's playback with the Switcher,
going from clip to transition, and then on to the next clip!
Set up a bank of Transitions on the Switcher, turn on Advance,
and now Switcher will advance both clip list playback AND the
effects used between them. Imagine having all your cutaway shots
ready to go on a live switch, so you can instantly transition
between live cams, to some b-roll, and back again. Coooool!.....
