ROSS ACUITY LARGE PRODUCTION SWITCHER
Acuity is the top-of-the-line large production switcher designed to handle the world’s most challenging live events. This switcher has been built to easily adapt to evolving technology in the video production industry and is built with the biggest creative feature set – for the biggest productions.
ACUITY Features
- Two production engines implemented in 4RU and 8RU frames, enable Acuity to eliminate I/O limitations and add new levels of internal processing power and signal management capability. SD, HD, 3G and 4K production are all easy to achieve within these two processing engines.
- The Acuity Production Switcher’s design brings independent mixing and keying capability to auxiliary bus outputs.
- With flexible ME/MultiViewer resources, and input MultiViewers on optional MultiProcessing input cards, Acuity can be the single monitoring hub for your entire facility. Benefit from huge reductions in wiring, external routing, and signal distribution systems – for a cost-effective monitoring workflow.
- Acuity’s MultiFeed technology allows each ME to be split into 2 MES, each with independent control.
MultiFeed provides the configurable output power you need for multiple feeds with different branding/captioning requirements or to drive on-stage displays – all from a single ME. - Acuity delivers a new level of DVE resources in a single ME to create incredible composite “box shots”.
VAST ME RESOURCES
With a true layering engine and more keyers to add graphic elements, compositing complex scenes on a single ME are no problem.
FUTURE-READY WITH UHD & IP CAPABILITY
Built with the future in mind, Acuity addresses the latest video formats and transport methods, while enabling a gradual transition from your existing equipment.
FULLY-INTEGRATED MONITORING
A simple and flexible monitoring solution eliminates the need for external routing systems, signal distribution systems, computers, wiring, and system complexity.
PEAK SWITCHER FLEXIBILITY
Acuity lets you do more with every single ME. Split each ME into two buses and full use ME resources with multiple configurable and keyable outputs per ME.
CUSTOMIZABLE DESIGN
It offered superior value with upgradable frames that fit in smaller spaces, include an impressive array of standard features, and work with a variety of control panels.
POWERFUL PROCESSING
It can outfit acuity frames with specialized I/O cards for total input and output processing power or hybrid SDI/IP connectivity.
