In combination with TeleTouch multiviewer technology it is possible to switch live sources or create up to a dozen transitions and movements by simply touching the screen. These functions are easily identifiable and programmable to preset camera positions and movements.

ProductionView HD MV is a 6x2 multi-format mixer that provides two discrete outputs for dual bus program sources. Input signals can be HD YPbPr video, RGBHV, SD (Y/C and CVBS), and its six provide DVI-I for RGBHV, DVI-D and HDMI. The program and preview outputs can be both analog (YPbPr, RGBHV, Y/C, CVBS) and digital (DVI-D and HDMI), supporting resolutions up to 1080p/60fps.

Broadcast functions

In camera control, it incorporates “broadcast-type” functions with a 3-axis joystick and a button that allows full control of zoom/pan/tilt and the speed of the effect.

Its six RS-232 ports are compatible with PTZ cameras from Vaddio, Sony, Panasonic or Canon, among others. The variety of transitions available include cuts, dissolves, wipes... which can be called with the touch of a button. The Lower Screen Graphic (LSG) feature allows users to include graphics from any PC over the program video output.

The optional TeleTouch Multiviewer panel allows you to configure up to six windows with different input signals and two larger screens for preview and program with green/red borders for tally. The preamp can be configured for both analog and digital outputs. Additionally, each camera could store up to 12 “video thumbnails” presets.
