AJA - FS1-X with FRC

 

DESCRIPTION:

 

FS1-X is the next evolution in frame synchronization and conversion. Within its compact 1RU chassis, FS1-X integrates an amazing array of video and audio connectivity and processing, including 56- and 64-channel MADI audio over coax or fiber. With its flexible architecture, FS1-X utilizes a high-quality, motion adaptive linear Frame Rate Converter for smooth motion conversion between a wide range of frame rates whether for broadcast, production or live events.

FS1-X with FRC: Advanced frame synchronizer and up, down, cross-conversion with 64-channel MADI audio support, high-quality, motion adaptive linear Frame Rate Converter and extensive video and audio I/O supporting both digital and analog.

Matching up and synchronizing disparate video and audio formats is a critical part of any broadcast, mobile or post-production environment. With the factory-installed motion adaptive Frame Rate Converter (FRC) option, FS1-X creates incredible, high-quality conversions between different frame rate families for virtually unlimited international standards support.
