Analog Way Announces New Orchestra Remote Controller

After the successful release of the Orchestra Controller in 2009, Analog Way is pleased to introduce Orchestra², a revamped version of the remote console.

Orchestra² allows control of several generations of Analog Way's switchers, including the Di-VentiX II, Eikos, Pulse as well as the new Midra 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 company says.

The Console comes with a new design and a Quick Frame button was added to control the Midra 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, the company says.

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 Midra series. The Quick Frame key will be available upon request by contacting Analog Way's Technical Support teams.
