Cost Effective 4 Channel Controller specifically designed for Play-out & Ingest "4PIC"

The 4 channel controller (4PIC) has been design to provide a cost effective solution to your High Definition SDI 'Ingest' and 'Play-out'.

4PIC is based on instant access tapeless technology (nanosecond resolution) and designed for simple intuitive operation in the field or in live broadcast production environments with full synchronisation of 4 channel caperbility.

In addition to the local console, an easy to use network management tool makes available all the common functionality of this 4 channel system.

A very easy to use Pictorial Tile 'Shot Box' menu feature for quick Cue, Play or Repeat of common used 'Clips' is included.

Control via network TCP/IP sockets, RS422, 7" Touch Screen and Web Server is standard.

Clips can also be 'EXPORTED' to CD-R, DVD-R, BD-R, SD Card or CF Card or USB Memory stick for transportability by pressing the 'Export Button', then select from the available media found, a simple three touch action.

However, it is envisaged you would connect the 4PIC's RS422 control interface to the Vision Mixing Desks (VMD) on a "Machine Control Port", with the I/O connected to the AUX bus on the VMD, allowing the VMD to source whatever feeds required into them, controlling 4 channels of Record / Pause / Cue, etc from the VMD.
