Ro Announces the Release of Entry Level Automated Production Control with OverDrive Expre

Monday, April 18th, 2016 [Las Vegas, Nevada] Ross Video is pleased to announce the release of OverDrive Express, the first scalable, entry level Automated Production Control (APC) system in the world.

OverDrive is the number 1 APC system available and has permitted hundreds of customers to automate their entire control rooms by integrating with newsroom computer systems, production switchers, graphics, servers, audio mixers, robotics and many other devices from one user interface said Scott Bowditch, Marketing Product Manager for the OverDrive range. OverDrive Express introduces this technology to a variety of user groups by offering an entry level, scalable system that can grow with the needs of any organization.

OverDrive is well known for extensive integration with more than 200 devices from countless manufacturers and as such, can integrate into almost any existing control room. The system integrates with Ross Carbonite switchers, but can also be used without a switcher as a device controller and sequencing engine with Rundown Control for smaller scale playout. An OverDrive Express system consists of modular software that offers options for device control ports and plug-ins to enable various workflows to meet the specific needs of diverse environments. Operations that start with OverDrive Express can easily expand to a full-scale OverDrive APC system over time as requirements change.

Ross is committed to make OverDrive accessible to more customers continued Bowditch. OverDrive Express is ideal for sports stadium, faith-based, institutional and educational, corporate and small-scale or budget sensitive news applications. We are very excited to show it off at NAB.
