The new MAXX 2400 delivers more channels, massive storage, expanded software features, and a price that makes economic sense. It brings a lot more video server to broadcasting with two video inputs, four outputs, 700 hours of storage (six Terabytes), a broad set of video formats, and a comprehensive collection of server tools in an attractively priced package. A clean synthesis of today's file-based workflows, with all the advantages of traditional base-band connections, MAXX-2400 fits well with today's production tools, while its hardware features and software tools make it a smooth upgrade for tape-based facilities. Fully compatible with leading automation systems, MAXX-2400 is ideally suited as a play-to-air server, as a cache for satellite ingest, for graphics storage, in weather systems, remote trucks, and for extra channels in DTV broadcast. It is a two-channel video recorder, a four-channel playout server, and a graphics store with linked key-and-fill capability. Standard features include both composite and SDI video ports, a frame synchronizer for recording wild sources like tape and satellite feeds, and a complete set of audio formats, including Embedded, AES/EBU digital and +4 analog.
