[. . . ] product data sheet Ignite s c a l a b l e au t o m at e d p r o d u c t i o n the ignite integrated production solution is the industry's first and most complete link between the control room and the newsroom--one that provides an unmatched return on your investment with single-operator capabilities. The Grass ValleyTM IgniteTM line of integrated production solutions is a software and hardware combination that is the industry's first and most complete link between the control room and the newsroom--one that provides an unmatched return on your investment. This innovative, singleoperator production tool provides a central point of management for controlroom devices. As a result, you can put increased staff in the field to better serve your community through more news programming, support 24-hour multicast channels, and deliver real-time cut-ins. [. . . ] As a result, Ignite technology identifies certain columns within a producer's rundown to create a graphical representation of the show. This graphical representation contains production events that make up each story, such as camera one with mic one full. The Ignite HD operator then controls the timing of each on-air production event. The Ignite platform also lets you reimport a rundown at any time, without affecting what is on air, to allow for last-minute show changes. And you can manually override any production function as well as insert new events at any time--making the Ignite HD solution a perfect fit for any fast-paced newscast. The Ignite platform also works well in non-scripted environments, such as election coverage, talk shows, game shows, live-entertainment segments and breaking-news stories. Using eventdriven technology, you can punch a show live, one element at a time. The platform makes this capability possible through the more than 300 configurable late-breaking news (LBN) keys. LBNs are pre-built production events ranging from a camera shot with an appropriate mic level to a complex eight-box effect with multiple mics and graphic layers--all of which can be inserted onto an event timeline at any moment during a show. Now you can direct any type of production on the fly. QUIcBox TAcTIlE conTRol InTERFAcE The QUICboxTM solution for the Ignite platform gives you the feel of a tactile interface without the bulk of large control panels. Whether you're punching an entire show live or inserting individual production events, it can trigger simple or complex functions for instant recall, and provides motorized, dynamic audio controls. www. grassvalley. com product data sheet System Selection configuration Matrix Base Specification Video In Standard Out Standard In Opt.
