ADVC 1000
ADVC1000 - DV converter specialized for
broadcast NLE
ADVC1000 is a professional, high-quality
bidirectional SDI/DV video converter designed for use with broadcast studio
equipment. Featuring front-side controls and LCD display, analogue video and
unbalanced audio outputs for monitor preview, and a solid half 19-inch rack
mount design, ADVC1000 is an ideal SDI in/out solution for any DV interface in a
studio environment.
Perfect Signal
Synchronization - Canopus "PerfectSync" (patent pending)
Canopus has realized perfect signal synchronization output with an
external reference signal (house sync) for Windows* and Mac OS based DV-to-SDI
conversion. ADVC1000 features original technology to control and synchronize the
transfer rate of IEEE 1394 communication with an external reference signal. This
prevents skipped and duplicate frames and produces perfect conversion of all
frames during DV-to-SDI conversion.
* For NTSC video conversion using Windows 2000, PerfectSync operation
cannot be guaranteed due to a limitation of the operating system
Key Benefits
Canopus 's proprietary DV technologies provide the best picture
quality preservation
SDI and DV I/O - Digital audio I/O ( AES/EBU) – Reference input
Analogue video and unbalanced audio output (for monitor preview)
Quick configuration using front panel controls
Front LCD panel for status and settings display
9-pin serial port (AV/C-RS422 command convert function)
Solid half 19-inch rack mount design
NTSC and PAL compatible
Windows and Mac OS compatible
VTR Control by AV/C-RS422 Conversion
ADVC1000 converts DV device control signals to RS422, to control an external VTR.
Such control makes it possible to take in data from professional VTRs such as
Digital BetaCam from any standard DV editing software that features DV
device control.
Professional Video System Input
Reference input and LTC input/output can be utilized to create a professional
video editing system with editors or switchers.
Reference Input
LTC input/output
Reciprocal TC conversions (LTC, VITC, DV TC)
Four-channel Embedded Audio Support
SDI supports up to four channels of embedded audio. It transfers professional
level video/audio signals and can connect to long distance transmission systems.
ADVC1000 has AES/EBU terminals to support MA operation with a professional audio
mixer.
Advanced Usability
ADVC1000 is quickly configurable. Front panel controls include a mode switch and
menu selection buttons with an LCD display for conversion settings.
ADVC1000 can operate as a stand-alone device not requiring a computer while
keeping any preprogrammed settings.
