Ross Video Introduces LiveEDL for the Ross CrossOver Series of Production Switchers

News Release

For Immediate Release

Iroquois, ON, Canada – March 31, 2010 - Ross Video announces LiveEDL, an option available in v2.5 or later software in the CrossOver Series of compact production switchers.

LiveEDL tracks the actions taken by the operator during a live production, allowing the user to export an Edit Decision text file that can be opened in editing systems like Apple’s Final Cut Studio.

CrossOver’s new ability to lock to house timecode is a significant new development that makes this possible.

“LiveEDL is a unique feature of the CrossOver Series of production switchers,” said David Ross, CEO, Ross Video. “LiveEDL gives editors the ability to quickly access and adjust live edit points, giving them a smoother and more efficient workflow on the post side of their productions.”
