Welcome to the world of replay.
3Play® 425
For years, the extremely high cost of live sports production
tools has made it nearly impossible for smaller organizations to
deliver a better viewing experience.
Now, NewTek 3Play 425 – at a newly reduced price –
eliminates the barrier of costly live sports production tools by
making professional instant replay and slow motion available
to everyone who previously thought it was out of their reach.
Local broadcasters, school teams, and emerging leagues now
have a multi-camera, live sports solution that makes it easy
to move up to full-tilt live sports production in network-quality
HD. 3Play 425 helps level the playing eld, with a system
compact enough to go anywhere.
Producers now have the power to deliver more than replay,
