For many TDs, operating a production switcher is done by muscle memory, knowing a panel so well that it is an automatic extension of the hands while the conscious attention focuses on the incoming video sources and cues to switch a show. The K-Frame CS X Production Switcher allows TDs to immediately transfer that intuitive knowledge to cloud-based video production. Button presses and transitions respond without delay, providing the precise control TDs have come to expect from Grass Valley production switchers

With three M/Es and six keyers with 2D DPM per M/E, operators have the creative resources required for professional video production. Stills and animations with fill/key including transparency also provide a polished production look. Those looks are easy to create and store with hundreds of eMEMs and Macros available for recall at the touch of a button with the familiar Grass Valley feel.
