Production Switchers | Carbonite

Options

Carbonite comes fully featured right out of the box! The following are a few options that can be added to your Carbonite system for a perfect fit into your production workflow.

XPression LiveCG™
XPression Live CG is an economical way to enhance your production with eye-catching graphics. Simply load XPression Live CG Software onto your own Windows PC, connect it and Carbonite to the same local area network, and you have a tightly integrated CG / Production Switcher System. XPression's intuitive user interface makes it easy to build compelling 3D graphics, add logos on multiple layers and create beautiful titles. Ordering and playout are controlled from the PC, using XPression's rundown-style sequencer which renders directly into Carbonite's MediaStore™, keeping video inputs free for cameras and other video sources.

GearLite SDI TO HDMI Conversion
Our GearLite (SHC-9642) SDI to HDMI converter is the perfect MultiViewer companion. This high quality yet inexpensive module allows the direct connection to your display's HDMI input from Carbonite's serial digital outputs via a single BNC cable.

Second MLE for Carbonite 1
A second MLE can be added to a Carbonite 1 system making 2 MLEs available and controllable from the Carbonite 1 single MLE panel via a shift function.

Remote AUX Panel
Auxiliary Control Panels provide external control for AUX output assignment. Up to 8 panels can be installed with your Carbonite system.

Input Upgrade
A 16 input Carbonite frame can be upgraded to 24 inputs.

Custom Control Shot-Box
SideShot provides instant operator access to Carbonite's powerful Custom Controls. Custom control macros can be programed to create simple or very complex production elements and transitions which can be assigned to SideShot keys - complete with highly visible control mnemonics.

Redundant Power Supplies
Redundant PSUs for both the Carbonite Control Panel and Engine can easily be added either at time of purchase or later, when required.

In-Desk Mounting Kit for Carbonite 1
Mounting brackets allow Carbonite panels to be easily and securely flush mounted in control room consoles. Note that the Carbonite 1M and 2M do not require brackets for flush in-desk mounting.
