Ross Video is celebrating their 40th anniversary at NAB this year with a new corporate logo, a new tag line Production Technology Experts and a significantly expanded NAB presence. The growing range of Ross production technology solutions can be seen at the Ross Booth #N3806 in the North Hall.
Vision Tritium
As always at Ross, the emphasis is on power and affordability - creating leading edge products at great prices, backed by exceptional support and customer service. Here's a preview of some of the things to expect from Ross at NAB this year. In addition to what follows, Ross is anticipating a few last minute surprises out of their development labs that will be announced closer to show time.
Production Switchers
Vision Tritium, the sweet spot in large production switcher value and performance, makes its North American debut. Vision Tritium is a full 3MLE modular production switcher packed full of features including: 48 x 32 Multi-Definition inputs and outputs, 6 real 3D DVE's, 16 channels of internal media stores, 16 keyers, UltraChrome chroma keys, built in Dual Head MultiViewers and a massive list of supported external device controls.
The Tritium processing engine pairs with a stunning Vision series modular 3MLE panel - with a choice of 24 or 32 direct access crosspoint buttons, and featuring Ross' PanelGlow RGB buttons and DualDisplay touch screen menu system. Tritium is fully upgradable and accepts standard Vision Octane components.
Carbonite - Ross' breakthrough mid-size production switcher series will show off its latest features, including the award winning MiniME and MultiScreen processing technologies. Available as a free software upgrade to all Carbonite customers (downloadable from the Ross website), these new features demonstrate the exceptional long-term value in buying Ross.
MiniME's can be used anywhere in the signal flow - either as pre-keyers or as independent transition engines. MiniME's produce a layered composition such as a virtual set background with a chroma key and an OTS DVE. They can be selected as direct inputs, or as independent keying and transition engines on up to 4 Auxiliary outputs for on-set displays.
MiniME's live in a resource pool' and are only assigned when required. Once the transition or effect is completed they are instantly available for use elsewhere. MiniMEs are not like Split MEs or multi program mode MEs' where ME resources are divided up and reassigned into smaller sections. MiniMEs are entirely independent devices leaving all standard ME resources available.
MultiScreen production is now available directly within a standard Carbonite thanks to Ross' new MiniME's. Up to four outputs can be controlled independently off Carbonite's main ME's, allowing a single source to be scaled over up to 4 outputs in multiple screen layouts. Keys and DVE's can also be included to facilitate compelling multiscreen productions. Expensive additional screen processors are no longer required when you've got a Carbonite switcher, as bezel compensation and edge blending for multi-projector setups are part of the package - a major system cost saving.
The Carbonite C2S is Ross' new 24 button, 2ME panel incorporating individual ME Effects Memory keypads. The C2S is ideal for sport and other productions in which the TD prefers to switch the show directly from the memory keypad. The C2S has all the features of the popular C2M panel, adding a dedicated ME Effects Memory control area in each ME - in addition to the standard global controls. The C2M panel brings the number of Carbonite panel choices to 7, covering a broad range of client needs, space and budgets.
DashBoard Facility Control
DashBoard is Ross' free facility control software that controls everything from Ross and our openGear and DashBoard Connect partners as well as a variety of other UDP, TCP and HTTP devices. Version 6.1 will launch at NAB and provides PanelBuilder - the ability for anyone to build purpose built CustomPanels and Automated Workflows. PanelBuilder makes customized control quick and easy via an intuitive drag and drop mode for building CustomPanels.
OverDrive Automated Production Control
At NAB, OverDrive takes the biggest leap forward since its initial release with the North American debut of OverDrive Caprica - adding the ability to control third party production switchers. Non-Ross production switcher customers can now enjoy the efficiency and consistency benefits of automating with OverDrive. OverDrive will be paired with Inception News at NAB 2014, showing a complete end-to-end news production workflow.
Inception News & Social
Inception News is Ross' unique newsroom computer system that blends the needs of traditional linear channel production with the modern requirements of web and social media content publication. Launched at IBC, this is the first showing of Inception News in North America. Providing both outbound publication as well as inbound searching and harvesting of social media, Inception is a great tool for your television producers and journalists as well as your social media team.
XPression 3D HD CG & Motion Graphics System
XPression motion graphics now offers solutions for virtually every type of onscreen live graphics requirement - everything from live character generation, to branding, to virtual sets and augmented reality. In addition to a host of new production features here are some of the new things from XPression this year:
XPression Tick-it and Brand-it are fully-automated, turnkey solutions for local TV and enterprise channel branding.
XPression Prime GO! a portable solution running on a laptop with full HDSDI I/O.
XPression Template Builder - an application for the creation of graphics outside of NRCS and NLE environments for later incorporation into programs.
