For professionals and enthusiasts alike.
A new entry-level member of the XVS family
Sony introduced the latest member of the XVS family of production switchers. The XVS-G1 inherits many of the well-established features and architecture from the current models and adds cutting-edge technology for a range of visual processing enhancements. The all-new 4RU processor is combined with a range of four stylish new control panels plus a newly developed web-based operational menu for efficient and simple installations. The XVS-G1 builds on the success of the MVS-3000A and MVS-6530 switchers, bringing full HD and 4K(UHD) capacity at an affordable price. Configurable from 1 to 4 M/E banks, the XVS-G1 offers 16 full-feature keyers with up to 44 inputs, 24 outputs in HD mode, or 24 in, 12 out in 4K(UHD). These features
The next-generation platform in Live Production Switchers
The XVS-G1 introduces a hybrid architecture which augments the well-proven video processing structure of the XVS series with an optional GPU-based effects and graphics module. Its configuration retains a central processing unit (CPU) and field-programmable gate array (FPGA), whilst adding an optional graphics processing unit (GPU), ensuring high performance and flexibility with visual processing enhancements while maintaining high reliability and stable operation.
High-speed processing, enabled by the hardware at 4K(UHD) resolution, and High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging, means virtually no compromises in performance and speed for real-time processing and ultra-low latency. High-density, high-resolution video processing using the latest software technology provides versatility and upgradability. The XVS-G1 system offers an affordable and flexible solution to meet the creative needs of today’s live productions.
A high-potential platform for maximum creativity realised by the optional GPU and modular software structure
The XVS-G1 offers new creative features including a built-in clip player, 3D digital multi-effects, extra still logo keys, and new multi-viewer functionality. HDR is also supported with Sony’s SR Live workflow and multiple HDR format conversion options.
16 keyers are provided, each with its own 2.5D resizer. These full-function keyers can be deployed in various configurations across 1 to 4 M/E banks. An additional dedicated Clip Transition keyer is available on each M/E.
The optional GPU pack provides a file-based clip player, integrated for the first time in a Sony live production switcher. There are four channels in HD mode and two channels in 4K(UHD) mode. Multiple clips can be stored and replayed, each with a maximum duration, for both HD and 4K(UHD) content, of up to 60 minutes. Widely available AVC codec files in MOV or MP4 container formats are supported.
Media files are easily and instantly loaded into the internal SSD storage directly from any network-connected device via a web browser. The user-friendly style of the clip player and switcher minimises preparation and setup time, simplifying live operation.
Other functions provided by the GPU include 4 channels of full 3D digital multi-effects in HD mode or 2 channels in 4K(UHD), and four still logo keyers.
New dedicated control panels retain Sony’s popular operator features
A range of four new control panels offers 1 M/E or 2 M/E configurations with 16 or 24 source button layouts. Derived from Sony’s renowned ICP-X7000 Series, they all ensure compact, easy and reliable operation. The panels inherit many familiar features of Sony’s XVS high-end switchers, including excellent on-air status display, unsurpassed button feel, and dependable speed in mission-critical live production.
The XVS-G1 system is a perfect fit for the small to mid-size studio, broadcast remote trucks, faith-based community, universities, corporations and fly away pack production units.
Remote operation for work efficiently and safely
The XVS-G1 system is capable of supporting network routing function to enable multiple LAN/WAN network connectivity. This allows the remote operation capabilities by connecting the processor and the panel over Layer 3 network. The control panel can be located at a remote site away from the processor to support remote production over the long distance.
Robust and reliable system integration
The XVS-G1 switcher embodies Sony’s XVS Series DNA of reliability, robustness, and durability, in a new compact processing unit that’s easy to install, setup and operate.
System expandability including third-party new and legacy tally systems, studio automation control, and remote distance production between the processor and the control panel over the IP network are also supported, to meet your requirements from a simple switcher configuration to a large-scale integrated live production system.
