The Future of video for audio-post is here…
Vcube HD is a highly compatible, non-linear video workstation which is quickly replacing the standard VTR as the standard in the post-production world in the UK and the rest of the world. The reality is that, in a modern world where budgets and deadlines are being compressed to the limits, Spending time and money on traditional VTR’s is just not a viable option. They are expensive to buy, incredibly expensive to maintain, and still involve a linear operation that no other part of the workflow requires. Vcube HD video system has been designed to meet the needs of today’s audio post facility.
By being able to play a wide range of files (over 50 types) in a native un-rendered fashion, Vcube saves hours a day by not having to spend valuable studio time converting and verifying video brought in from outside sources. Vcube is also completely network streaming ready as standard. It can hook up to any existing video storage network (Unity, ISIS, XSAN etc) in the blink of an eye and start playing back video without having to copy anything locally. For facilities where time is of the essence, Vcube is the only choice.
Touted as the “Swiss army knife” of Video for audio post, Vcube is by far the most flexible video tool for audio post-production available on the market today. The system can easily read AAF, OMF and even Final Cut Pro XML files, playing back the video in its un-rendered multilayer format without any troubles at all. Add to this its ability to synchronize to ANY system running ANY frame rate (even perform timecode “gearboxing”), makes Vcube the only option for busy facilities.
With even the most fully loaded Vcube system available coming in at under ¼ of the cost of a HDCAM SR, even the initial expenditure of money can be kept to a minimum. Vcube can also be purchased in Player only formats, or even SD only versions, keeping costs down where a full HD recorder might not be needed. Add to that the complete lack of requirement to repair and replace tape heads, tension arms and all of the moving parts in a traditional VTR can save a facility thousands of pounds per year in maintenance fees.
