TV Station in a Mac Mini
As always, ToolsOnAir is proud to be among the first to embrace new and emerging technologies. With the release of Apple’s Final Cut X, we will combine with Black Magic Designs Ultra Studio 3D to present our newest concept, “Ultra Studio TOA on Mac Mini,” allowing smaller TV stations to easily migrate from tape based workflows to a future-proof, cost-effective open file based workflow, with powerful and reliable 24/7 playout and minimal infrastructure requirements.

Newsroom Integration with OCTOPUS Newsroom Systems
ToolsOnAir will partner with OCTOPUS to present the complete integration of Final Cut Pro into the production chain using OCTOPUS NLE plug-in. Going well beyond the standard MOS workflow, this integration provides the entire newsroom with access to ToolsOnAir graphics features and enables users able to position computer graphics using low resolutions versions of finished clips, vastly speeding critical real-time workflow.

INGEST: just:in Supports Avid MXF OP-Atom
Also at IBC, ToolsOnAir will unveil our new integration of just:in ingest wth the Avid OP-Atom format. This cost-effective ingest solution provides just:in multi-channel support for any Avid Media Composer environment, with up to six SD channels and four HD channels.
