Analog Way’s Orchestra2 Remote Console is designed to control a wide selection of Analog Way’s mid-range Mixers / Seamless Switchers. It serves as an updated version of the Orchestra Controller, which the company introduced in 2009.
More details from Analog Way (www.analogway.com):
Orchestra2 (Ref.ORC50) allows control of several generations of Analog Way’s switchers, including the Di-VentiX II, Eikos, Pulse as well as the new MidraTM series such as the Saphyr, Pulse2 and QuickVu. In total, the Orchestra2 is compatible with 16 Switchers from Analog Way.
Orchestra2 can manage, independently or simultaneously, several Switchers, either as stand-alone boxes or in combination, including Soft Edge Blending. It controls up to 6 independent screen configurations in different locations and stores up to 64 presets per screen configuration.
The Console comes with a new design and a Quick Frame button was added to control the MidraTM series. Orchestra2 features off-line programming enabling programming of the Console when Seamless Switchers are not connected. In addition, the Remote Console features the new Snap function, a powerful tool to help quickly position layers.
Its numerous user-friendly, customizable and configurable presets enable the set-up of the screen configuration, so that they are easily accessible during the presentation. A last minute modification is easy thanks to the direct input/output selection access.
Also equipped with a USB port, the complete configuration of the event can be saved both internally and externally for future use.
Analog Way will start shipping the Orchestra2 in May 2014.
Orchestra and Axion2 owners will be able to download the new firmware on Analog Way’s website ensuring compatibility with the MidraTM series. The Quick Frame key will be available upon request by contacting Analog Way’s Technical Support teams.
