A new Event Master upgrade and card lets users scale up their shows - big time

TRAITEMENT DES IMAGES 2 min de lecture

When Event Master was launched for event professionals, it was already designed to grow. A succession of new cards and firmware upgrades have enabled users to expand their possibilities. The latest upgrade and card - the 4K@60 tri-combo - allows them to easily scale up to produce larger shows.

More inputs, more outputs, more possibilities


With this new software upgrade, event producers can create even larger screens, with more inputs and outputs as well as a greater number of layers to work with. Enhanced linking means up to eight of the same chassis types can now be connected to create much larger systems. 

The outcome? Incredible flexibility. For smaller shows, for example, the same units can be used to support multiple smaller systems. And in all formats, Event Master provides full 4K@60 4:4:4 12-bit processing and low latency.

"Super-Destination"? What's that?

Event Master can now be used to program so-called Super-Destinations. This is when images are projected on multiple screens separately, or as Super-Layers that span the larger single Super-Destination.

Along with the software releases 5.1, Barco is now shipping the new 4K@ 60 Tri-Combo Output Card.  Like the previously-released 4K@60 Tri-Combo Input Card, the new cards each support 4K@60 4:4:4 on a single cable via DisplayPort 1.2, HDMI 2.0 and 12G-SDI for extra flexibility.  In addition, Quad 3G-SDI I/O supports 4K@60 as quadrants or 2SI (2 Sample Interleave) or may be used to support four independent HD signals.

The card and software upgrade will be unveiled at ISE 2018 at the RAI (booth 12-F100) in Amsterdam, February 6-9, 2018 or visit Barco image processing for more detailed info.
