Ro Video Introduces Carbonite Black Plus at NAB 06

Sunday, April 17th, 2016 [Las Vegas, Nevada] - Ross is introducing an even more powerful version of its market leading production switcher at NAB 2016 - the Carbonite Black Plus which contains all the features of Carbonite Black - Plus a bunch more.

The new Carbonite Black Plus is a signal processing marvel. In this newest version all 36 inputs come equipped with Frame Synchronizers, Format converters, Color Correction and Proc amps, easily handling a wide variety of input signal challenges. In addition to this, Carbonite Black Plus provides Proc amps, Color Correction and Format Conversion on 12 of its 25 outputs. This is perfect functionality for matching on set displays and outputting multiple formats.

Carbonite Black Plus also adds dramatically more monitoring capability. With this new processing engine there are a total of 5 MultiViewers with up to 16 configurable windows each. This provides 80 windows in total, making it possible to monitor every aspect of a production. All 36 inputs, 22 outputs, the media stores, three MEs and four MiniMEs and aux buses can be monitored - a simply huge advantage! The processing engine includes three new outputs dedicated to MultiViewers, so that main outputs aren't sacrificed for monitoring.

Of course these new Carbonite Black Plus features are in addition to the 3 full ME's and 4 MiniME's, simple 4K production, 1080P 3G, and much much more found on the existing Carbonite Black processing engine.

There is more good news about Carbonite as well. All sixteen input Carbonite models now get 2 more inputs for free. As of NAB, any Carbonite systems ordered with 16 inputs will now be shipped with 18 active inputs and existing Carbonite customers will have these extra 2 inputs unlocked with version 12 software. All Carbonite systems now ship with an XPression LiveCG license to provide a complete production system with graphics. There is even an easy upgrade path to XPression Go, Prime, or Studio systems.

Another bonus for all Carbonite customers is that XPression Live CG software is now included with every Carbonite production switcher, providing the ability to design and push static graphics directly to Carbonite's MediaStores via Ethernet from a customer supplied Windows computer.

Whether your production needs are modest or extreme - there is a Carbonite to match them. Please visit the Ross website at rossvideo.com for full details on the entire Carbonite series.
