Available in 2 M\/E, 2.5 M\/E or 3 M\/E models, the switcher is loaded with standard features to handle complex video productions, and offers optional support for 3 Gbps and 3D production.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new HVS-4000 was designed to handle a variety of production challenges,\u201d says Pedro Silvestre, Sales Director, FOR-A Corporation of America. \u201cWith options that can support 1080p* and 3D production, our switcher can easily grow with our customers as their production needs evolve. Customers can also easily upgrade to a 3 M\/E model from a 2 M\/E version.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The HVS-4000 comes with a control panel for the 2 M\/E version and one for the 2.5 M\/E and 3 M\/E models.\u00a0 The 2 M\/E switcher comes with either 16 or 24-buttons. The control panel for the 2.5 M\/E and 3 M\/E models enables direct access to preset content, including a macro bus and event recall button for each M\/E. And the 2.5 and 3 M\/E versions come with either 24 or 32-buttons.<\/p>\n<p>With its simple panel operation, the HVS-4000 lets the operator switch between HD and SD signals and the various HD formats. With the optional up\/down\/cross converter card installed, the system can support mixed input from HD and SD devices. Supported HD formats include: 1080\/59.94i, 1080\/60i, 1080\/50i, 1080\/30PsF, 1080\/29.97PsF, 1080\/25PsF, 1080\/24PsF, 1080\/23.98PsF, 720\/60p, 720\/59.94p, 720\/50p; SD formats supported: 525\/60, 625\/50.

The M\/E count does not change even if used as a stereoscopic 3D switcher.<\/p>\n<p>The HVS-4000 comes standard with four keyers for each M\/E. Eight keyers are standard on the 2 M\/E model, 11 keyers are standard on the 2.5 M\/E model, and 12 keyers are standard on the 3 M\/E model.
