The Grass Valley T2 KTR4-PRO-CV404K Pro Intelligent Digital Disk Recorder/Player supports 4K (UHD or DCI) content with single-channel input or output, or with one record and two output channels simultaneously in HD/SD mode. Featuring a crisp, clear 7-inch LCD touch screen display with jog/shuttle control for fast and intuitive operation, the user-friendly GUI enables operators to easily realize 3D video output, key fill output and quick playback of playlists. The front-panel transport controls have the look and feel of a traditional VTR.

The T2 4K Pro features a rear-panel video/audio/remote/LTC connectivity, T2 4K can also accept files via USB 3.0, or by data transfer over a standard Gigabit Ethernet network, including Grass Valley HQX, XAVC, XAVC S, XDCAM, P2, AVC-ULTRA, Apple ProRes 422, Avid DNxHD and MPEG-2 files. Moreover, the T2 Pro 4K digital recorder/player can be controlled by video production switchers, presentation mixers and audio mixers to create a powerful presentation system. The T2 4K Pro has two playout HD/ SD channels for independent editing and previewing, or for delivering content to two different display systems simultaneously, useful for edge-blending and displaying 3D content.

Combining the look and feel of a traditional VTR with touchscreen and workstation operation, the T2 4K Series delivers a flexible, codec-agile 4K DCI/4K UHD/HD/SD platform for ingest, replay, transmission, editing and content management. A software application suite makes media clip selection, playlist creation and playout seamless, while integration with Grass Valley's EDIUS solution enables users to edit and trim clips during recording for faster content turnaround.
