SportsAPPLICATIONSCarbonite is used daily in a wide variety of production applications.Our engineers have incorporated feedback from our diverse groupof users, resulting in a capable, powerful and feature rich productionswitcher. Whatever your creation, you can be assured that Carbonitewill give you all the horsepower you need to produce beautiful, crisp,clean television.BroadcastFlight PacksWorshipCorporateLive EventsEducation
RICH FEATURE SETA great looking production requires a complete set of tools. Carbonite’s unmatched power andeasy-to-use feature set will get the job done.Powerful MLEsCarbonite packs major effects and keying power into 2 MLE’s. Each MLE has4 powerful keyers with luma, linear, Chroma and DVE key types as well as anadditional 5th hidden keyer for animated Media Wipe and DVE transitions.Each MLE can access the 2 advanced UltraChrome chroma keyers. Twoadvanced pattern generators per MLE are available for wipes, pattern masksand color washes. Each MLE also provides a clean feed output.LiveAssistTM & MediaManager A powerful Ross DashBoard LiveAssist control interface combines withCarbonite’s MediaManager browser to provide intuitive control over switchersettings, Media Store graphics and animations. With simple access fromPC and MAC, DashBoard and MediaManager are the perfect Carbonitecompanions.ViewControlWith ViewControl, it is now possible to create an entire production from asimple and very intuitive interface. Complex transition elements are shown asthumbnails surrounding the live source windows. Running the show is now assimple as touching the screen.4 Channel Media-Store Four independent media player channels are available switcher-wide. Stills,logos and animated graphics can be played out from the on-board 8GBmemory and can be loaded via USB storage devices. The Media-Store can also be managed directly over Ethernet via Carbonite’s browser-basedgraphics tools.4 or 8 Channels of DVE4 or 8 high quality 2D DVE channels are available system-wide. When set to4 channels the DVE’s ‘float’ within the system architecture allowing all to beassigned to a single MLE or distributed across both MLE’s as the productiondemands. These DVE’s are also available for MLE DVE transitions and havededicated selection in the MLE transition area.MediaWipes with Audio PlaybackMediaWipes add powerful animated transition capabilities with audioplayback from the Carbonite Media-Stores . Create compelling, animatedgraphic transitions and control them simply from a dedicated MLE transitionarea selector.Dual MultiViewers with ClockTwo configurable MultiViewers (up to 32 windows) are included in Carbonite’sstandard feature set. These clean, low latency MultiViewers have accessto all external and internal sources. Source naming and tally assignmentautomatically follow window routing selections. The MultiViewer clock can belocked to house time via Time code.Multi-Format ProductionCarbonite’s video processing engine can be set for Standard or High Definitionproduction. In addition, the standard system includes 6 internal framesynchronizers and format converters which allow mixed SD and HD formatsto be seamlessly incorporated into your production. The Carbonite Plus andMultiMedia versions have dedicated converter/synchronizers on every input.Proc Amps and Color CorrectionAll inputs on the Carbonite and MultiMedia frames have video processingand color correction controls for input matching or to add creative flare.MultiMedia InputsThe Carbonite MultiMedia version has special input groups that acceptanalog and HDMI inputs as well as SDI. These input employ advanced formatconversion designs that provide very high quality conversion for progressiveand computer display formats with low latency.UltraChrome Advanced Chroma Keying in Every MLEOur UltraChrome chroma keyer uses new Ross technology to performdetailed keying in the most demanding conditions.Effects Memory with MemoryAI Carbonite’s patent pending powerful and truly unique intelligent resourcemanagement system allows stored keys and backgrounds to be recalledto preview without disturbing what is currently on-air. This system enablesmultiple ‘scenes’ to be stored and recalled in a manner that would normallyrequire a much larger multi-MLE switcher.Custom Control MacrosPowerful, editable macros that can do almost anything. Record events,recalls, pauses, holds and control devices. Executable from a single buttonpress.LiveEDL Another unique Ross feature; during your live production Carbonite cangenerate an industry standard Edit Decision List (EDL). Production decisionscan then be seamlessly transferred to a Non Linear Editor to recreate theevent timeline. With Carbonite, getting an as-run edit into post is as simple asa few mouse clicks.RossTalk Protocol & Device ControlDirect control of external devices is simple with Carbonite. Control Servers,Robotic Cameras and, of course, our award winning XPression 2D / 3Dgraphics system.
CARBONITE STUDIO SYSTEMSCarbonite Studio SystemsA Carbonite 1 or 2 MLE switcher combinedwith a superb Ross Video Blackstorm Server,and our stunning XPression 3D CharacterGenerator and Motion Graphics System.Whatever your production needs, there is aStudio System package that will meet them.
ViewControl is much more than just touching sources and bringing them to air, this is asophisticated and highly integrated system that can easily perform seriously complexproductions.Whatever your production tasks a Carbonite Studio System with ViewControl will accomplishthem perfectly every time. No other production solution can provide seamless and efficientcontrol. The whole is truly greater than the sum of the parts.71142351 Configurable tabbed ‘bins’ withthumbnails for instant touchselection of custom productionelements2 Next Transition Selection3 Transition & Roll Clip Controls4 Direct Key Cut & Auto Control Areawith Source Mnemonics5 Touch Selectable low latencyMultiViewer windows (1 frame delay)6 Switcher Bus Destination Selection7 ViewControl Configuration Settings16Pick a panel.

CARBONITE EXTREMECarbonite eXtreme breaks away from thetraditional production switcher architecture.Production switchers are typically designedaround the task of delivering a single Programoutput from multiple input sources, howevermany production systems today are requiredto deliver outputs to multiple screens, on-setdisplays and signal distribution systems. This isparticularly true for live production of worship& stage events as well as within larger facilitiesand multi-site complexes.eXtreme is a truly revolutionary productiontool. It has all of the horsepower of Carbonitewrapped inside a highly configurablesignal routing & management system. Thiscombination is ideal for mobile productionvehicles as it simplifies installation andoperation immensely, while also offeringtremendous flexibility and significant systemcost savings.The eXtreme chassis can be configured withan I/O of up to 144 x 144 in increments of8. With eXtreme it is now simple to managecomplex productions across multiple outputdestinations!eXtreme is available with any Carbonitecontrol panel and destination based signalrouting control is simply managed with our NKrouter panels. Of course eXtreme can also beconfigured as a Studio System with XPressiongraphics systems, BlackStorm playout serversand DashBoard control.With Carbonite eXtreme you have acomplete ‘state of the art’ production systemwith full signal management. Nothing likethis has ever been seen before, it is anotherRoss first and a real game changer!
