Matrox MXO2 Rack is a new version of the award-winning Matrox MXO2 I/O device for the Mac. The 2RU-sized Matrox MXO2 Rack is designed for broadcast news operations, OB vans, and other environments where heavy-duty, rackmountable equipment, more audio inputs and outputs, and genlock loop through are required. Matrox MXO2 Rack streamlines editing workflow with Apple Final Cut Studio on Mac Pros and MacBook Pros. It gives you broadcast-quality input/output; monitoring; up/down/cross conversion; and support for a wide variety of formats and codecs.
Matrox MAX is a unique technology that implements faster than realtime H.264 encoding for resolutions ranging from iPod to HD. It uses a dedicated hardware processor to accelerate the creation of H.264 files for Blu-ray, the web, and mobile devices. By using specialized hardware acceleration, jobs are finished with amazing speed and system resources are liberated for other tasks. Quality and flexibility are ensured through direct integration with professional applications such as Apple Compressor on the Mac and Adobe Media Encoder on the PC. As an added benefit, the Matrox MAX technology allows direct export to higher-quality H.264 Blu-ray compliant files from Compressor.
