EDIROL Introduces New VC-200HD and VC-300HD Bi-Directional Converters with Audio Delay (5/10/2006)

EDIROL's latest VC converters offer unsurpassed routing flexibility with real-time, two-way encoding between analogue and digital video and built in Audio Delay

EDIROL's new VC converters are among the first products to offer real-time encoding and bi-directional conversion between any analogue, HDV/DV or SDI source. There are two new models in the range, the VC-200HD and the VC-300HD. With the two-way signal encoding a single 200 or 300HD unit offers a complete signal flow solution. Both units also include built-in Audio Delay so any latency in the video signal can be easily compensated for. Audio Delay adjustments can be made in millisecond or frame increments for lip/audio sync with the video source. The models also feature in/out sync terminals allowing GEN lock with external devices. Each unit can also automatically detect the input signal format and, with multiple active outputs, it is possible to record the source signal from different outputs simultaneously. The VC-300HD adds an SDI input and output with the ability to embed the audio in the HD/SD-SDI stream.

"The VC line extends the functionality of every HDV product out there," says Massimo Barbini, Managing Director of EDIROL Europe. "With the media converters, any HDV camera or deck can be used with your existing analogue products and function as a record source from analogue sources." Price and availability

The EDIROL VC-200HD and VC-300HD converters will ship this year, price tba.
