Panasonic AG-MX70 8-Input Professional Digital A/V Mixer

With the AG-MX70 digital A/V mixer, Panasonic has integrated a 2-BUS, 8-input video switcher, multi-functional digital video effects unit with high-end performance, and an audio mixer into a single compact unit. The AG-MX70 provides broadcast-grade 4:2:2:4 digital component picture quality. It features more than 600 effect patterns and a 30-frame graphics buffer for roll, crawl, and logo animation using title files downloaded from a PC. A large LCD panel with a matrix menu helps assure quick, easy operation. Offering optional 3D video effects and SDI interface, this A/V mixer is ready for full-fledged digital post-production. The versatile AG-MX70 is right at home when connected to 25 Mbps DVCPRO VTRs in a digital editing system, or when used as a switcher either in the studio or at live events.

Eight video inputs, each with tally output, and M/E and DSK preview prepare the AG-MX70 for use as a switcher with multi-camera feeds for live studio or event applications. Adding the optional SDI interface also enables high-quality digital input. Titles and graphics created on a PC can be downloading from MX-Navi application, and easily superimposed for use in live production programming.

Standard-equipped RS-422A and RS-232C remote terminals and a GPI terminal allow the AG-MX70 to team up with the AG-A850 or other-brand editing controller, for A/B roll editing. With the SDI interface option on-board, a high-quality, fully digital editing system can also be configured with a DVCPRO VTR. The MX-Navi title insertion program brings the quality of program production to a level approaching many high-end systems.
