1. Digital-to-Digital Conversion Unit
The ADVC-1000 converts SDI signals and DV signals bidirectional. SDI (serial digital interface) signals are the standard signal for professional digital video, and DV (digital video) signals
have a high PC compatibility. The ADVC-1000 uses a proven
Canopus DV codec, ensuring that converted signals have a
solid quality.

2. DV-SDI Conversion Generates Perfectly Synchronized
Signals (Advanced Mode)
The ADVC-1000 converts DV signals to SDI signals while receiving a sync signal from an external source. An original Canopus synchronization technology (patent pending) enables DVSDI conversion with output signals completely synchronized
to the reference signal, preventing frame skips or frame holds
during the process.
3. Professional Specifications Adapted to a Variety of
Studio Uses
Designed for a quick and easy introduction to a wide range of
studio systems, the ADVC-1000 features AV/C-R422 conversiondriven VCR control and a full complement of reference input
and LTC I/O. Four-channel embedded audio support enables
creation of a wide range of video systems.
