FOR-A HVS-1200-TYPE A Hanabi 4K/12G/3G/HD Video Switcher

The FOR-A HVS-1200-TYPE-A Hanabi Video Switcher Bundle comes complete with the HVS-1200MU Digital Video Switcher and the HVS-492OU 18-button Control Panel, each with their own power supplies (HVS-1200PSM & HVS-49PSO). The HVS-1200MU can act as a 12G-2 M/E Switcher (1 Full + 1 MElite) or 3G-6 M/E (2 Full + 2 MELite) switcher. It features 10 12G-SDI (or 40 HD/SD-SDI) inputs, 10 12G-SDI outputs (or 10 HD/SD-SDI) including 2 HDMI v2.0b) and a Frame Synchronizer on each input. Also the unit features Full M/E- 4 Keyers with quad chroma Key/2.5D DVE and more! System includes 4 FLEXaKEY, 4 image stores, a 900 frame clip player (6 max with MV option), Dual 16 channel built In Multi Viewer, Macro Function, PC and web based application interface, and 6 Aux buses. Integrated ONStage capabilities and Midas touch system GUI software capability is included, however a touch screen appliance must be purchased separately. The new switcher builds on the features of the HANABI HVS-100/110 and HVS-490 video switchers and adds 12G-SDI support as standard. One or two M/E switching (in 4K (UHD) and HD mode, respectively) is just the start. Enjoy two or six M/E performance in these modes thanks to FOR-A's MELite technology. The compact, 3U form factor is exceedingly portable, making the HVS-1200 the perfect choice for mobile production or events. The HVS-492OU switcher control panel inherits key technology of the HVS-2000 and HVS-390HS, while opening the door to even more affordable 4K production. Exclusive MELite technology extends the switcher's 2 M/Es to offer 6 M/E performance. Expand your switching capabilities even more by assigning FLEXaKEY or feature rich 2.5D DVE, for compositing with up to 12 keyers. Take advantage of this truly broad range of switching in live production.
