Industry-leading color correction is available with two per M/E, assignable for inputs or the entire bus, ensuring that the final output meets the highest visual standards. The switcher's 4 clip store capability, with up to 60 frames in each clip store, expands to 120 frames with the HVS-39MEM option, providing ample storage for complex productions.

The HVS-390HS is designed with redundancy in mind, offering optional redundant PSU for both the main unit and control panel, which are hot-swappable from the front of the MU. This ensures continuous operation, even in the event of a power supply failure.
