HDStorm
HDSTORM – HDMI-based Editing A single PCI Express form factor board and packaged with a full version* of the latest Edius Editing Software,
HDSTORM allows you to work with HDMI inputs and outputs, and has a
Canopus HQ hardware codec built-in for optimized, CPU-free capture.
HDSTORM
empowers you with constantly synched, full-resolution preview of
effects and content directly from the EDIUS timeline. The power of
having the Canopus HQ codec on-board means you won't be restricted by
CPU speeds or workstation limitations when ingesting or creating
high-quality Canopus HQ AVI files for editing. Keeping the compression
processing separate from your CPU brings new reliability and system
performance to the editing and effects creation environment.
Working
as a perfect combination of software and hardware, HDSTORM can handle
any mix of HD and SD video content; unlimited video, audio, title, and
graphics layers; and any combination of real-time effects.
If
you are still making the transition to an all-digital, high-definition
workflow, you can purchase the optional HDSTORM Bay at any time, to add
a comprehensive set of analog inputs and outputs. The HDSTORM Bay is
included as standard with the full HDSTORM Plus package
