3Gbps format support added to Overture MD switchers
8 May 2009
Echolab added support for 3Gbps (1080p60) format to its Overture MD switcher, available with 1 or 2 M/Es, making it even more versatile to its existing range of SD, 720p, and 1080i over a single SDI or HDMI input.
With internal analogue to digital conversion and frame sync, the Overture MD enables a compact, streamlined, and cost-effective production solution. The addition of 3Gbps operation means the Overture now supports the highest quality broadcast format now on the market.
Echolab’s Overture1 (1 M/E) and Overture2 (2 M/E) are multi-definition video production systems with a comprehensive range of intuitive tools for producing high-quality programming with good effects. Internal conversion and synchronization combine with powerful key layering and special effects to put creative control at the user’s fingertips.
The Overture switchers’ internal frame synchronization helps to ensure the quality of effects and, along with internal up/cross conversion and up to 34 internal graphics/still stores, eliminates the need for external systems, further streamlining the workflow and reducing the cost of creating a sophisticated on-air look.
