If you're a serious professional looking for a way to maximize
productivity and create compelling content that stands out
from the crowd, Matrox RT.X100 Xtreme Pro bundled with the
new Adobe digital video applications is the solution for
you. It's ideal for corporate communicators, event videographers,
project studios, educational facilities, and digital filmmakers.
Here are just a few of our favorite new features in
X-Tools 6:
-
Real-time color matching. Very
cool! In the example Matrox used during the demo, a
kid is playing in a playground. Shot 1 has great lighting.
Shot 2 has poor lighting because clouds rolled in. With
a few clicks you could correct the bad image to match
the first. I can't believe how simple and easy it is
to do, with such extremely powerful results.
- Real-Time color pass & color replace - take
any color from a picture manipulate or replace it, and turn
everything else monochrome.
- Matrox single pass scan and capture utility from within
Premiere Pro.
- Hot new filters - lens warp and time code overlay.
- Adobe Encore DVD WYSIWYG support - video output
on a PAL or NTSC monitor when using Adobe Encore DVD
Adobe Premiere Pro becomes a full-quality, full-resolution,
no-compromise powerhouse with RT.X100 Xtreme Pro. For
not much more than the price of the software alone, your editing
experience is greatly improved through:
superior realtime 3D effects with spline keyframe control
sought-after realtime filters - pan & scan, old
movie, soft focus, and more
realtime analog and DV capture and print-to-tape
realtime MPEG-2 capture and encoding
faster, more versatile capture and export tools
In addition, Adobe After Effects, and Adobe
Photoshop get an important productivity boost with RT.X100
Xtreme Pros WYSIWYG support for video output on your
NTSC monitor. Matrox RT.X100 Xtreme Pro is part of the new
generation of Matrox products to incorporate the Power of
X - an architecture that leverages the scalable power of your
CPU with the explosive performance of dedicated hardware for
the ultimate realtime video editing experience. It's ideal
for corporate communicators, event videographers, project
studios, educational facilities, and digital filmmakers.
Matrox RT.X100 Xtreme Pro builds on the success of the
Matrox RT.X100 and RT.X100 Xtreme realtime editing platforms
that have won numerous international awards.

System requirements |
Matrox RT.X100 Xtreme Pro requires the
following minimum system configuration: |
- Microsoft Windows XP Home or Professional with Service
Pack 1 or later.
- Pentium 4 at 2.2 GHz, or AMD Athlon XP 1500+.
- 512 MB physical memory (RAM).
- Free PCI slot.
- Display card (Matrox Millennium G550, P650, P750,
or Parhelia recommended).
- 16-bit sound card (DirectSound-compatible).
- CD-ROM drive (DVD-ROM drive for Adobe Encore DVD
installation).
- At least 2.5 GB of free space to install all included
software.
- Separate hard drive for A/V content.
- Video camera or VCR.
|
Note: Realtime DV output requires
the recommended system configuration listed below. Certain
complex effects, or combinations of effects, require a
more powerful system to prevent dropped frames during
playback. Because some of the Matrox realtime effects
are CPU-based, upgrading to a more powerful CPU might
allow you to combine more of these effects. |
|
|
Recommended system configuration: |
- Pentium 4 at 2.4 GHz, AMD Athlon XP 2100+, or faster.
*
- 512 MB DDR RAM or RDRAM. *
- DV-1394 camcorder or VTR.
- NTSC or PAL video monitor.
- Additional A/V drive for realtime export to disk.
*You may want to upgrade your system to meet Adobe
Premiere Pro's recommended system requirements as
explained in your Adobe documentation.
|
Important: It
is recommended that you use a computer equipped with a
power supply of at least 300 watts. Although RT.X100 Xtreme
Pro does not consume much power, fully configured recommended
systems with a high-end graphics card (such as Matrox
Parhelia), two or three hard drives, and a powerful CPU,
will push the limits of a 250-watt power supply. |
