Grass Valley EDIUS HD Desktop Edit Station
– Analog or Digital, SD or HD
The EDIUS HD edit station is our flagship editor for professional
video production environments and perfect for any analog, SD, or HD
digital production workflow. Its multi-I/O processor design includes
common SDI and component video inputs, AES/EBU digital audio and
balanced audio support, RS-422 device control, and SD and HD
component outputs.
The EDIUS HD edit station is configurable with one or two 20- or
24-inch LCD monitors and comes with a keyboard, mouse, speakers, and
internal storage—everything you need to get up and running.
EDIUS Multi-I/O Processing Unit for HD/SD
The EDIUS HD edit station includes the HDBX1000 Multi-I/O Processor
Unit. HDBX1000 is a professional, high-quality, 3U rackmount device
featuring every conceivable connection that a broadcast studio might
require. In addition to the vast array of I/O connections, the
HDBX1000 unit can perform realtime same-frame up- and downconversion.
This makes it possible to output to HD and SD devices simultaneously,
directly from the EDIUS timeline.

Format-Independent Craft Editing
The heart of the EDIUS HD platform, like that of each EDIUS edit
station, is a combination of high-performance hardware and nonlinear
editing software. This combination provides a true, realtime WYSIWYG
(what you see is what you get) editing experience—one that's perfect
for advanced craft editing involving multiple formats, layers,
camera shots, and complex nested sequences.
With an EDIUS HD edit station, you can mix SD and HD assets in the
same timeline, making it perfect for documentaries, commercials,
interstitials, and other complex or long-form craft editing projects,
regardless of the source or output format.
Exchange Assets Freely
The projects and assets you create on one EDIUS edit station can be
freely moved and exchanged with another for a truly mobile editing
experience. And by using
REV PRO™ drives and removable media, you can move projects from
one location to another without losing changes or missing asset
files.
You can also incorporate an EDIUS HD edit station into a network
configuration for asset exchange and/or integration with our K2™
media server/media client system, Profile® XP Media Platform server
, Profile 6G server, M-Series™ intelligent digital disc recorder (iDDR),
or
Turbo™ intelligent video recorder (iVDR).
