Sony HDRC-4000 Converter
The HDRC-4000 HDR production converter unit provides simultaneous real-time streams for multi-purpose 4K HDR (High Dynamic Range) live production as part of powerful Sony SR Live for HDR workflows. The unit can output a variety of video signals, including 4K HDR (S-Log3, BT.2020), HD HDR, 4K SDR and HD SDR, without loss. The compact 1.5RU chassis is ideal for operation in an outside broadcast environment. The AIR (Artistic Intent Rendering) Matching function faithfully retains the producer’s artistic intent to any distribution format while achieving greater workflow efficiency. The unit can also be controlled by the MSU-1000/1500 and RCP-1500 series remote controllers.

Sony PVMX2400 HDR Monitor
The PVM-X2400 is a 24-inch 4K HDR high grade picture monitor, incorporating a Sony-specified premium LCD panel that offers 1000 cd/m2 luminance and colour matching with the BVM-HX310 4K HDR master monitor. This makes group monitoring easy for on-set, studio and truck applications, and in 19” EIA racks for editing, audio mixing etc.
Sony’s acclaimed TRIMASTER architecture delivers accurate picture reproduction, precise imaging and quality picture consistency. There are many advantages in the panel control and signal processing system such as fast processing, accurate linearizing of an input signal with Optical Electrical Transfer Function, accurate colour reproduction, etc.
Dynamic Contrast Drive is a new backlight control system that dynamically changes the panel’s backlight luminance to adapt to changing content enabling you to confirm the total balance of highlights and low lights at a glance. The feature can be used to reproduce black representation in dark content, such as night scenes and provide specular highlights in bright content such as snow field and summer beach scenes. The Dynamic Contrast Drive feature provides a dynamic contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1.
Due to the inherent nature of LCD panels, some backlight leakage is unavoidable. To compensate, Black Detail Mode High/Mid/Low facilitates more accurate monitoring of black detail in dark, low- APL (average picture level) images. The backlight level is reduced but gamma is maintained for correct colour and grey scale. High luminance areas may be clipped due to the dynamic range of the monitor. Any clipped portions can be displayed as clipped or highlighted by a zebra pattern.

Ereca Stage Racer
The Stage Racer product line is an ultra flexible solution to connect a stage to an OB VAN.
With the ERECA unique feature for on the fly direction configurable 3G-SDI channels and the numerous commodities signal transmitted along the videos, the stage racer is the product of choice for an affordable fast and easy event deployment.
All our Stage Racers are built in to bespoke 6U racks to utilise all signal functionality.
The equipment assumes transmission of a comprehensive set of signals as follows:
8 or 12 x video 3G / HD / SDI signals (direction configurable through built in web server),
1 x Genlock bidirectional (PAL image / Black burst / Tri-level),
16 x analog audio for intercom or broadcasting,
8 x Microphone pre-amp blocks
2 x Ethernet 10/100/1000Mbs (1 Gigabit trunk with 2 VLANS),
4 x Data RS 232/422/485,
8 x Contact closures.
4 x AES 3 bidirectional (Riedel panel compatible)
1 x bidirectional MADI (AES10) Signal (Shared with 2 of the 4 AES connectors).
For flexible setup the mechanical is declined in a 1U rack which fits everywhere and in a very rugged compact die cast aluminum box. This latter enclosure ensures excellent shock/drop protection along with dust and water resistant capacity for all “no fly case” applications. Links can be built between racks, rugged boxes or rack and rugged box.
All the signals are transmitted on 2 singlemode fibers. As an option, an optical cable failover is built inside the modules by adding a second connector. In case of fiber break the equipment automatically select the other cable.
