Analog Way will showcase a selection of its latest mixers seamless switchers including the Ascender 32, a premium multi-screen seamless switcher with 32 scalers. The Ascender 32 (Ref.ASC3204) is a powerful Multi-screen Seamless Switcher with 32 Scalers.

The system offers 12 seamless inputs with 42 input plugs: six HDMI, nine DVI-I, thre DisplayPort, 12 3G/HD/SD-SDI, and 12 universal analog. It can handle any source from composite video, up to 2560x1600, and outputs a variety of formats, including HD-TV and computer format up to 2560x1600 and 4K.

Ascender 32 includes an independent dual-link output for monitoring purposes, with a live source mosaic layout. The product delivers varied display configurations: mixer, hybrid, hard edge, and soft edge configurations.

In addition to a native background layer, Ascender 32 can display up to four true-seamless scaled layers plus one native background per output. Up to 50 frames and 50 logos can be stored in the device's memory bank. Layers, including frames and logos, can be controlled individually in time and transition, and can be fully resized.

Ascender 32 can be controlled through the Web RCS, an intuitive Web-based remote control specifically designed for the LiveCoreTM platform. It can also be easily controlled through AMX and Crestron 2 or 3-Series systems, thanks to a full package of drivers available at the URL below.

Analog Way will also show the Saphyr (Ref.SPX450). It is a versatile mixer native matrix switcher based on Analog Way's Midra platform, the core of a new line of mid-range mixers seamless switchers. Saphyr comes in a 2RU enclosure, and with upgraded connectivity through 10 seamless inputs and 16 input plugs: four universal analog, 4four DVI-D, four HDMI, and four 3G-SDI plugs. Saphyr can operate fast and seamlessly switch between any of its 16 input plugs without fade through black or loss of sync. The product features a matrix mode with two outputs, and offers custom output format management.

Saphyr delivers ultra-performing processing with a new de-interlacing process, and optimized presets management.

Saphyr offers advanced audio management: It can easily embed or de-embed digital audio on HDMI and DVI-D connectors on inputs and outputs, ensuring better quality of the video and audio mix.

The Saphyr can be controlled through the RCS², a user-friendly graphic interface designed for all Midra systems. As an AIR application, the RCS² is compatible with Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. It offers three main sections to setup and control the Saphyr: setup, edit, and live. The section to control audio signals includes the main elements of an audio console, including potentiometers, faders, and a VU meter.

Saphyr can also be easily controlled through the new RK-350 remote keypad, or through AMX and Crestron 2 or 3-Series systems.

Based on the Midra platform, Pulse² (Ref.PLS350) is a versatile mixer native matrix switcher offering diverse connectivity through eight seamless inputs and 14 input plugs: four universal analog, four DVI-D, four HDMI, and two 3G-SDI plugs. Pulse² can operate fast and seamlessly switch between any of its 14 input plugs without fade through black or loss of sync. The product features a matrix mode with two outputs, and offers custom output format management.

Pulse² offers smart functions such as direct source swap and screen split.

Digital audio can be easily embedded or de-embedded on HDMI and DVI-D connectors on inputs and outputs. For easy routing of audio signals, some functions such as fast routing and audio breakaway mode are available.
