The Avid AirSpeed 2.0 system is available with front-panel video control and monitoring or with control and monitoring optimized for HD workflows and remote operation.
Avid Technology has begun shipping the Avid AirSpeed 2.0 system, a multi-purpose video ingest and playout server for sports, news, live events and other productions requiring fast, efficient turnaround.
The AirSpeed 2.0 system now supports uncompressed SD and the Avid DNxHD format to facilitate HD production from capture to playout. The new system is also available with front-panel video control and monitoring or with control and monitoring optimized for HD workflows and remote operation. The latter offers four times the storage capacity in place of the front-panel controls and monitor.
The AirSpeed 2.0 system is designed to deliver video ingest and playback server functionality within a streamlined digital nonlinear production workflow. The system features VTR-like functionality with full remote programmability and control, and offers complete interoperability with the Avid Unity family of shared-storage solutions.
