MSW-2000P Series

Studio Editing Recorders

In the digitally based broadcast industry of today and tomorrow,

only the fittest enterprises will grow and prosper. In short, those that

deliver the quality, flexibility, choice and value - that an ever more

demanding audience requires.

Whatever your medium, from satellite or terrestrial to cable; and

whether you operate locally, nationally or internationally, networked

systems based upon open MPEG-2 compression, can deliver what’s

required at every step of the programme production chain.

Hence the rapid increase in the popularity of MPEG-2 based

systems. The advantages of this technology are felt at every stage

of the process. Not only is MPEG-2 the worldwide standard for

digital programme delivery via DTV, DVB and DVD, it is also widely

used for the contribution and distribution of material between studio

centres.

In addition, MPEG-2 4:2:2P@ML is also a firm favourite for

programme production. Thus the number of linear and non-linear

options based upon this system continues to increase dramatically.

MPEG-2 brings a number of pivotal benefits to your organisation.

These range from its versatility - optimising quality and cost for each

programme application; interoperability - bringing you an extensive

choice of equipment from multiple suppliers and the reassurance of

a future-proof investment.

Today as broadcasters begin to reap the full advantages of

MPEG-2 technology, they are demanding the resources to produce

programmes of the very highest quality using recording systems that

are also based upon open compression and interfacing standards.

In anticipation of this requirement, Sony has introduced a new

family of MPEG IMX™ Studio Editing Recorders based upon

MPEG-2 4:2:2P@ML data compression at 50Mb/s intra-frame -

the MSW-2000P Series.

Developed from Sony’s unique experience of, and world

renowned reputation for, 1/2“ recorders : Betacam, Betacam SP,

Digital Betacam and Betacam SX, the MSW-2000P Series ensures

compatibility with all Betacam-based tape libraries and facilities.

So not only is this exciting new range the ideal tool for migrating to

an open MPEG-2 environment - quickly, simply and cost effectively;

it is perfect for protecting your investment in current 1/2” resources.
