Efficient and Powerful new Software Version

V8 (Version 8) is a new software upgrade for all Slate live video production systems. It features a new user interface that is more powerful and more efficient. V8 also makes many enhancements to Slate’s Fluent workflow software, including the Fluent Multi-View, Clip Store, Graphics System and Macros. New options extend Slate's control to ViewCast streamers and Telemetrics camera control systems. V8 will also run on upcoming Broadcast Pix 3G systems and so enable a smooth transition to a 1080p future.

New AutoAspect lets 16:9 and 4:3 inputs, clips and graphics be used interchangeably and mixed together in the same production, while maintaining the aspect ratio of each, and can be extended to simultaneously output both sizes.

PixButtons

At the heart of the unified control system of the Broadcast Pix Switcher are the unique PixButtons. They provide streamlined control of all tools, sources and keyers. Each has a display built into the button. At the top of each PixButton is an icon, which shows which device it is operating. Many buttons also tell which device is active, and their color tells if they are on-air, on preview or off.

With Slate, you can grow as your needs grow. A low cost Slate 100 SDcan upgrade all the way to a 2 M/E Slate 5032 HD. Slate non-G systemscan upgrade to the Slate G Series, and then on to 3G 1080p/60.Conventional HD switchers are not upgradeable to 3G, so someday theywill need to be replaced to support the emerging 3G standard. BroadcastPix gracefully takes you to the future.

kvtn_25_little_rock.jpgBroadcast Pix was a natural fit into our integrated system. The Slate 1000 is intuitive and we like the versatility. PixPad is marvelous. We really like the DVE capabilities and Fluent Macros. For the money, you just can’t beat Broadcast Pix.
