Editware Introduces DiVA at NAB 2013

DiVA provides more accessible and affordable non-linear editing functions and server control

Editware launches new product at NAB 2013— Editware’s new DiVA provides more and server control. DiVA incorporates many of Editware’s award-winning Fastrack hybrid editing and server control capabilities with user-friendly control via keyboard, mouse, and/or touch screen. Fastrack will continue to be the best choice for those with the most demanding requirements.
DiVA’s simple to learn user interface makes it an excellent choice for freelance operator projects. The DiVA keyboard has every function clearly indicated on keycaps without hidden CTL and ALT functions. Also, a new graphical user interface is usable for every keyboard operation via mouse or touch screen. The GUI includes groups of functions positional anywhere on the screen allowing users the ability to set up their own grouping to best support their workflow.
DiVA’s native control applications, via Ethernet, of Harmonic Omneon and Spectrum, Grass Valley K2 and Summit, and EVS servers provide enhanced non-linear editing functions. Editing control for most other broadcast industry servers is supported using the VDCP control protocol. DiVA also controls up to 8 serial devices, including VTRS, switchers, mixers, and effects devices through RS-422.
DiVA’s software-only version with server control is available for as little as US$2,900. Additional options include a multi-port serial card and video capture cards, a dedicated keyboard and jogger control panel. A DiVA system can be built by the user on a separately sourced computer, or provided as a turn-key system from Editware.
Editware will be exhibiting at the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) show in Las Vegas from April 8-11, 2013, in the North Hall, booth N626.
