Cost-effective master control system. Built to meet the demands of 24/7 operation. A dedicated card-based solution provides complete program path protection using input bypass relays, protecting your channel output. Our hot-swap system allows a single spare MC1-MK card to replace any on-air channel card, and have all of the channel's parameters automatically recalled to the replacement MC1-MK card. Intuitive DashBoard operation allows for an easy transition, and brings users up to speed quickly. Simple scaling solutions allow for additional openGear cards, add an additional channel by adding a 2nd MC1-MK, or add a variety of additional functions such as Loudness Processing, Dolby Encoding, and Nielsen watermarking.
