Cross-conversion is high-quality hardware-based, providing capability to

streamline dailies and offers true broadcast picture quality in real time. Because

these functions are in hardware on the card, they are available full time, all

the time—with no CPU load. Such conversions are useful for cost effective

monitoring, making standard definition dubs of an HD project, or upconverting

from a standard definition project to an HD deliverable.

KONA 4's high-quality input sample-rate conversion on AES inputs eliminates the

need for audio source synchronization. Sample rate converters auto-lock to any

AES input, 32-96kHz, and then convert it to 24-bit 48kHZ audio, locked to internal

KONA 4 video.

KONA 4 supports two versions of firmware, 4K and UFC, which can be installed as

needed to meet your specific requirements.
