1. Analog Way Midra 4K Presentation Switchers
Tailored to small/medium-sized fixed installations and live environments, the Midra 4K Series offers highreliability, low-latency, simplicity, optimal image quality and state-of-the-art live 4K processing features. The range includes four products; QuickVu 4K, QuickMatrix 4K, Pulse 4K and Eikos 4K. With the 2.0 software release, the Midra 4K Series now offers an IP streaming functionality, allowing any input or output to broadcast over IP. The streaming feature could be used to feed an online web service, distribute the content over a private network, display the content or edit it thanks to software like OBS Studio. The Midra 4K switchers also can now be operated by the powerful RC400T event controller designed to greatly increase the level of operational efficiency and give instant access to crucial functionalities such as screens, layers, sources and memories. Additionally, with the 2.0 software release, live sources can now be used in the background set for the Pulse 4K multi-layer video mixer and seamless presentation switcher. Many other improvements are available in this version, such as the integration of high frame rates up to 144HZ, new HDCP policy management, support of the https protocol and more. www.analogway.com
2. Audio-Technica 3000 Digital Series Wireless System
The 3000 Digital Series wireless system features 24-bit/48kHz processing, a wide dynamic range of 120dB and 60MHz tuning range to ensure both exceptional audio performance and flexibility, with analogue-balanced audio outputs achieving a latency of just 2.5msec. The 3000 Digital Series receiver is Dante-enabled and ready to slot into any Dante network. Up to five ATWDR3120DAN dual-channel receivers can be connected to allow a single pair of antennas to feed up to 10 channels of wireless. Control of the system is made straightforward via software monitoring that gives access to frequency co-ordination, charging status and log display information. In terms of transmitters, the ATW-DT3102 handheld transmitter is equipped with an industry-standard thread to allow use with Audio-Technica’s interchangeable microphone capsules, as well as other compatible options. A unique multifunction button on the transmitter body can be used to switch immediately to a backup frequency on both transmitter and receiver should interference be encountered. In addition to the handheld microphone transmitter option, the ATW-DT3101 body pack transmitter is also available, with a four-pin locking connector and 80Hz/120Hz/160Hz high-pass filter. www.audio-technica.com
3. CHAUVET Professional onAir IP Series
CHAUVET Professional’s new all-weather, onAir IP Series is suited to move from indoor to outdoor projects. All three models in the onAir IP family have a 90+ CRI and TM-30 score, as well as +/- Green adjustment, and onboard emulated red-shift control via CRMX wireless control and DMX. The largest of the three, the onAir IP Panel 2, is a 2x1 format 372W panel that delivers 23,000 peak lumens. Next in size is the 200W onAir IP Panel 1, which is a 1x1 format panel that provides over 12,000 peak lumens, while the smallest fixture in the family, the 49W onAir IP Panel Min, produces over 2,500 peak lumens and has a removable PSU. Engineered for real world applications, the onAir IP offers unique drop-in access to allow quick and easy swapping of diffusion and intensifier filters without tools. The panels also make it easy to use either a pin mount or truss clamp during set up, and offer a direct 28v connection. RDM (Remote Device Management) and CRMX Wireless Control provide added flexibility. Fixtures in the ultra-quiet onAir IP series offer a variety of features that make it possible to achieve nearly any colour in the visible colour space, while delivering an extraordinarily bright output. The onAir IP panels have precise colour temperature replication. Presets make it fast and simple to adjust colours, and the panels fade rather than step between colours. Software updates can be made easily with no need for an uploader thanks to a USB port and readily navigated on-board control. The panels can also be controlled via integrated CRMX wireless, Art-Net and sACN networking, as well as a five-pin DMX, making it easier for users to run them in any environment. www.chauvetprofessional.com
4. Tasker Digital Audio and Video Application over LAN Cables Tasker presents its range of Ethernet cables, distinguished into different categories; 5e, 6A and 7, according to the transmission speeds and types of shielding applied to the single cables. Depending on the type of shield, the unshielded pair cables are indicated as U.T.P (Unshielded Twisted Pair), and if they have a shielding on the grouping they become S-U.T.P. (Shielded - Unshielded Twisted Pair). There are also shielded cables with aluminum foil, the F.T.P (Foiled Twisted Pair) and those with double shielding, which add a tinned copper braid on the grouping, the cables S-F.T.P (Shielded Foiled Twisted Pair). Tasker proposes a new range of cables for mobile installation; C725 (Cat. 5e, S-U.T.P), C728 (Cat.6A S-F.T.P.) and C726 (Cat.7, S-F.T.P). These cables are extra flexible thanks to elementary stranded formation and available with PVC jackets, LSZH or PUR, specific for external applications. For fixed installation, however, cables with monofilar conductors such as C727 (Cat.7, S-F.T.P) are available with different types of outer sheaths. The last product is the Tasker C722 B2ca, a LAN Cat.6 S.F./U.T.P., 4x2x0,25 mm² section with multiple operative applications and approved for the maximum risk class as the CPR legislation states. www.tasker.it
