Matrox RT.X2 LE is a ¾-length PCIe card with a professional breakout box. It is designed to work with Adobe® Premiere® Pro CS3 or Adobe Creative Suite® 3 Production Premium.

The time for customers to add HD production capabilities to their repertoire is now. Cameras are affordable and the new Matrox RT.X2 LE card dramatically reduces the cost of a high- performance HD editing system. Not only is the price of the card itself lower than ever, it also fits into a low cost desktop system.

If you're a professional video editor concerned about getting maximum productivity from Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and Adobe CS3 Production Premium, have a look at the Matrox RT.X2 product line – the ideal solutions for corporate communicators, event videographers, project studios, educational facilities and digital filmmakers. If you’re delivering your work in SD, Matrox RT.X2 SD is right for you. If you need to edit HDV or P2 MXF 720p and output HD, choose Matrox RT.X2 LE or Matrox RT.X2. If you want to use a DVI display for full resolution HD previews, you’ll need RT.X2.

The Matrox RT.X2 platforms go far beyond the capabilities of software-only editing and systems that combine Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and a simple I/O card.
