MEDIACONVERTER MC-2E
With the MediaConverter MC-2E DV/SDI/Analog Converter—the most advanced video
and audio signal transcoder that Focus Enhancements has ever developed—you can
achieve professional, high-quality bidirectional DV/SDI-to-analog video conversion.
Rackmount ready, the MediaConverter MC-2E can be easily added to your existing
AV rack.
MediaConverter MC-2E DV/SDI/Analog Converter
Designed for broadcast and professional postproduction, the MediaConverter MC-2E
makes advanced, bidirectional video conversion affordable, reliable, and easy. With a
variety of inputs and outputs, the MediaConverter MC-2E enables you to convert DV to
analog video, analog video to DV, and analog or DV to SDI. No matter what your conver-
sion needs are—DV, CV, Y/C, YUV, or SDI—the MediaConverter has you covered.
NLE System Compatibility
The perfect complement to popular editing systems such as Avid Xpress DV, Pinnacle
Liquid, Apple Final Cut Pro, and Adobe Premiere, the MediaConverter MC-2E enables
you to work with footage from any source—including video recorded on older tape for-
mats—by converting it to digital video for nonlinear editing. Once your program is ed-
ited, you can transfer it to tape for archiving.
Audio Conversion
The MediaConverter MC-2E also includes a full-featured audio signal converter with
connections for unbalanced stereo, balanced stereo, AES/EBU, and DV/SDI embedded
audio. The audio input can be selected independently from the video signal and all audio
outputs are available simultaneously, enabling the MediaConverter MC-2E to embed or
de-embed audio.
TBC and Genlock
The Focus MediaConverter MC-2E includes full-frame time base correction and Genlock,
making it perfect for broadcast applications.
Timecode Conversion and Control
Featuring bidirectional D-VITC to DV TC conversion, the MediaConverter MC-2E ensures
that users of nonlinear editing systems can easily maintain the same timecode values
as tape. The MediaConverter MC-2E includes an RS-422 interface that enables smooth
conversion of RS-422 LTC to DV TC and an RS-232 interface for firmware updates and
system settings. Video levels, audio levels, and color phase (HUE) can be adjusted by the
user for maximum control over picture and sound.
