Lawo V_pro8 with release 1.0 in serial production

Showcased at NAB and IBC, Lawo’s first video device, V_pro8, has been brought to release 1.0 level, leaving its prototype phase behind. The V_pro8 was developed to deliver powerful video processing in a compact form-factor.

Features of the processor include high quality cross-format conversion, colour correction, and embedding/de-embedding. Modern high density audio connections such as Ravenna and MADI provide video-to-audio bridges within the studio infrastructure.

The V_pro8 works as a flexible matrix system: thanks to a 8 x 8 video matrix and a 384 x 384 audio matrix it is possible to switch any signal to any other signal. A modern GUI based on HTML5 provides the interface for easy handling in day-to-day work.
