MMC relies on Ross Video to equip its new UHD mobile unit

MMC工作室 has boosted the capacity of its Cologne (Germany) facility with the addition of a new UHD mobile unit loaded with 罗斯视频解决方案。

法比安·莱姆巴赫, senior innovation and technology manager at MMC, contacted Ross Video supplier MCI to see how they could integrate their new 4K 超高清 HDR mobile unit. After looking at several possibilities, they decided on a vehicle built around 复仇 敏锐度。

This platform, which supports 超高清12G workflow, combines the 敏锐度 生产切换器与复仇 AV routing and processing platform. This, Leimbach notes, “gives us the ability to adopt an IP-based workflow in future if we choose. I like that flexibility because IP isn’t always going to be the right choice for us.”

Advantages of Ultrix Acuity

莱姆巴赫 stresses that the integration of elements of Ross Video’s Ultrix Acuity is key to achieving his goals: “I can’t think of any other solution that offers such a rich toolset of features in such a compact package – it’s most impressive to have multiviewers, audio embedding/de-embedding, clean/quiet switching and framesyncs all in one place.”

The mobile unit system is accompanied by a secondary 超碳酸盐 switcher, 超触 control panels and the 另一方面 connectivity control system.

Let’s Dance, first project

MMC工作室‘ new mobile unit equipped with 罗斯 solutions will debut with the UHD production of 让我们跳舞吧 为了 RTL。

哈奇克·科尔丘, CEO and CTO of MMC Group, believes that “the move from HD to UHD was only possible with our partners from RTL as well as the production company Seapoint.” “Everyone was watching our approach. Even the BBC was aware of the stakes given their top-rated licencing format ‘Strictly Come Dancing’. In producing ‘Let’s Dance’ in UHD for the first time, our technical approach was so carefully planned and executed that we were not only able to make the move HD to UHD, but on top of that move from UHD SDR to UHD HDR in the final show of this year’s season. So, two full technology steps within one season of a show – that is also a really unique technical development for us, and perfect proof of a great production setup,” concludes.
