STORM 3G™is designed for video
professionals who want one solution
for both SDI-based editing and tapeless
workflows, with the capability to preview
their projects on affordable HDMI
monitors.
Based on the PCI Express form factor,
the STORM 3G solution includes EDIUS®
nonlinear editing software, 3G HD-SDI
inputs and outputs, and an HDMI output
for full-resolution, real-time preview
monitoring. Embedded HDMI audio
provides high-quality audio monitoring.
It’s a premium, high-powered solution for
multi-format editing.
Timecode input and output is supported
via the RS-422 port for accurate editing
from field logs. The reference input
supports both analog blackburst and
tri-level sync. External VTR ingest can be
controlled via the RS-422 port and the
optional VTR emulation software may
be used to control the EDIUS software
like a VTR for direct playout from the
workstation.
The STORM 3G board can handle any
mix of high- and standard-definition (HD
and SD) video content; unlimited video,
audio, title, and graphics layers; and any
combination of real-time effects. It also
offers real-time, full-resolution, full-quality
HD and SD video outputs.
An optional timecode in/reference out
board takes a linear timecode source via
the BNC connector and provides two
reference outputs-blackburst or tri-level
sync-providing a means to synchronize
both the STORM 3G and an external
device, such as a source deck, from a
single timecode source.
3G HD/SD SDI-based, multi-format
editing with HDMI monitoring.
