Masterpiece Master Control Switcher Family
SD, HD, 3G and 4K UHD Master Control Switchers
Providing total master control and channel branding for all standards from SD to 4K UHD, the Masterpiece Master Control Switcher Family works across multiple formats, includes flexible audio capabilities, channel branding and multichannel video program distribution, as well as dynamic visual effects. Combined with FormatFusion3 technology — unique in the master control environment — giving you more capacity to feed multiformat material into your channels. This means you don’t have to create multiple versions of the same material to feed different channel outputs, and there is no need for external conversion equipment. This reduces capital outlay and complexity. Commercial breaks in HD can...
