Whether you have the Mac Pro 2019, a Mac Pro 2012 or 2010, or PC tower, Accelsior 4M2 can go to work for you. As a half-length x8/x16 compatible card, this game-changer offers the versatility you need so you’re not tied to one slot size or limited by a space-confined computer case.

You can also enjoy the performance boosting benefits of Accelsior 4M2 with your Thunderbolt 3-equipped notebook computer, iMac workstation, or slot filled gaming rig. It’s plug and play easy with a PCIe expansion chassis like the OWC Mercury Helios 3s (sold separately).4 Helios 3S lets the Accelsior 4M2 flow with your workflow by offering up to 2,500MB/s real-world read/write performance in the field on your notebook.5 Once back at your desk, the choice is yours…keep Accelsior 4M2 in the Helios 3S or install it into your Mac Pro 2019 to enjoy its blistering fast 6,000MB/s capabilities.

Accelsior 4M2 was designed with a PCIe switch to let your computer address each of the M.2 NVMe drives at full x4 PCIe speeds instead of hard-limiting each drive to x2 PCIe speeds. When running in JBOD, where all four drives are typically not accessed at the same time, each drive has the unlocked capability to run at full speed.

When over 6,000MB/s real world speed and 8.0TB of capacity isn’t enough to satisfy your needs, you can RAID two Accelsior 4M2 cards together to experience out of this world performance.

Accelsior 4M2 includes SoftRAID Pro to ensure you get the maximum, steady performance, protection and monitoring against drive failure, and plug and play simplicity. SoftRAID is the only solution with robust drive health monitoring and reporting capabilities and full TRIM support for attached external and PCIe slot NVMe drives under MacOS. SoftRAID's easy setup makes it customize storage to the RAID volume(s) your applications need by helping you through the entire process. Ready to go plug and play or just decide what you're use requirements are for desired RAIDs and how much space to allocate to it. It's that simple to create your preference of speed and/or redundancy attributes of your data volume.

For the first time ever in the history of Thunderbolt™, users can buy a bus-powered Thunderbolt™ certified enclosure and install their own drive in it. Finally, a DIY kit that allows users to break free of pre-configured choice limits in order to build a pocket-sized storage solution that meets their specific needs. And rebuild it anytime those needs change. Equally revolutionary is the included slide mount. This surface-safe removable drive holder allows the user to slide the Envoy Express onto the back of a laptop screen for out-of-the-way mobile use convenience.

 

Build the Envoy Express with a brand-new drive for a fast boot drive. Retask an existing drive replaced during an upgrade for added storage and backup capacity. Or, use Envoy Express to regain access to files on a drive removed from an inoperable machine. Whatever the reason for building a bus-powered Thunderbolt™ enclosure, Envoy Express has the power to make it happen.

 

Designed to support any 2280 M.2 NVMe SSD, the Envoy Express gives users the freedom of flexibility to use any drive today - including OWC Aura SSDs up to 4.0TB capacity - as well as being ready for tomorrow’s 8.0TB, 16TB and future capacities without limit.

 

Whether you want to backup your growing photo and music libraries, share files, play your favorite games and movies anywhere, or even want to capture and edit up to 8K video, the Envoy Express can do it all. And it’s built to support super-fast sustained data transfer rates up to 1553MB/s…often faster than a machine’s internal drive performance!

 

When working space is limited, the Envoy Express mounting system is the solution. Today’s office is where you make it - a cramped airplane seat, a tiny coffeeshop table, on your lap in a remote location. There’s no power outlet and not enough room for an external drive. Besides being the industry’s first Thunderbolt™ 3 bus-powered (no power adapter required) enclosure, the Envoy Express is the first to include a laptop mounting system.

Super-strong, removable adhesive gel and a lightweight yet durable plastic holder secure the Envoy Express to the back of a Thunderbolt™ 3-equipped Mac or PC laptop screen.

*Independent (JBOD) keeps the drives as two separate and independent volumes

*RAID 0 (stripe) for optimal performance and maximum speed use

*RAID 1 (mirror) for the security and peace of mind of mirrored data

*Span combines the drive capacities to create one extra-large storage volume

Done with the drives but need the hub connectivity? Eject the Mercury Elite Pro Dual’s drives and any additional external drives connected to it from your computer in a single click with OWC’s free Dock Ejector app.  You’ll be certain that all data has been written before any drive is unmounted, protecting against data loss.

 

At 5.8” high x 3.3” wide and weighing under four pounds with two SSDs installed, the Mercury Elite Pro Dual - USB-C can be taken anywhere you need an all-in-one storage and connectivity solution. It connects to USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 computers and can work cross-platform with Macs and PCs using OWC's MacDrive software (sold separately).

Data-center software on your desktop

Using RAID to store and manage data offers unparalleled performance and data security. OWC SoftRAID protects your life’s work with redundant storage options and disk failure monitoring. SoftRAID from OWC delivers the best of safety and speed, far outperforming hardware-only solutions.

The best of access speeds and data safety with countless disk configurations is a game-changer. With the ease of creating RAID volumes, the flexibility to use multiple enclosures and the foresight to prevent disk failure, SoftRAID helps you manage your data like a pro at a fraction of the cost.

• Create and/or delete raid volumes easily


• New disk? Test it first with certify


• Check your data or volume at any time


• Five raid levels for all uses
  
  
  
  • RAID 0, 1, 4, 5, 1+0 (10)
  
  
  
  


• 24/7 Disk failure warning via email

When it comes to protection, SoftRAID stays steps ahead of data loss. SoftRAID checks new disks before you use them, warns you when a disk is about to fail, and keeps working after a disk fails.

If speed is what you’re after, SoftRAID leads the race. SoftRAID enables the use of up to 16 disks in a single volume or the ability to spread volumes over two or more enclosures for unprecedented speeds.

For optimal speed and safety, SoftRAID is in a class by itself.

SoftRAID checks new disks before you use them. New disk? SoftRAID's certify feature will tell you if your disk is bad, before you save precious data to it—protecting you against using a disk that is faulty or about to fail.

Always on and never in the way.  SoftRAID Monitor runs scans in the background—even when you're not logged in—making it ideal for use on servers. And when you're logged in and working, it uses a minimum of CPU power, so you won't even notice it's there.

Keep working after a disk fails. If you use a SoftRAID mirror (RAID 1), RAID 4, RAID 5 or RAID 1+0 volume, your work is protected against disk failure. Even if one of your disks fails, you can keep right on working and make your deadline. None of your files will be lost. How great is that?

 

SoftRAID supports five levels of RAID optimized for speed, safety, or both. Any SoftRAID volume can have up to 16 disks.

• RAID 0 – Stripes
  
  
  
  • Fastest
  
  
  
  


• RAID 1 – Mirrors
  
  
  
  • Safest RAID
  
  
  
  


• RAID 4 – Dedicated Parity
  
  
  
  • Fast and safe
  
  
  
  


• RAID 5 – Distributed Parity
  
  
  
  • Fast and safe
  
  
  
  


• RAID 1+0 (10) – Stripes + Mirrors
  
  
  
  • Fastest and safest

Thanks to the boom in popularity of OTT services, feature films and TV series are being delivered to more platforms and localized into more languages every day.

Localization service provider, ZOO Digital has developed a cloud dubbing service that overcomes a number of industry challenges – including capacity, voice talent diversity, quality and time-to-market for dubbed entertainment content.

The platform behind the service works like an online recording studio. Unlike the traditional approach to dubbing in which those involved are required to attend sessions in one central studio, ZOO’s cloud dubbing service makes use of purpose-made software to manage the entire process remotely over the internet.

| Giving Content Owners Choice |

In the traditional dubbing workflow, voice actors, dubbing directors, recording engineers and other participants assemble in the same physical location, presenting significant challenges for coordinating diaries and travel. Most traditional dubbing studios draw on a relatively limited pool of voice talent living nearby in order to minimize travel and subsistence expenses. This leads to the same voices being heard repeatedly for dubbed soundtracks across multiple titles.

In contrast, cloud technology provides a way for participants to collaborate efficiently online and scale up operations with a distributed team.

The potential for using general recording spaces, vocal booths and even home recording is significant. Subject to adequate acoustic treatment and the availability of a suitable microphone, such spaces give almost limitless capacity for voice capture – and more options for content owners.

| Innovative Cloud Technology |

ZOO is adopting new ways of working, powered by cloud computing, to boost volume, quality and turnaround. Rather than using technically-complex generalist audio tools, the localization service provider has created purpose-made, cloud-based platform that is designed to be used by the voice actors themselves, thereby reducing costs and accelerating production.

Crucially for the entertainment industry, ZOO’s cloud dubbing service affords higher levels of content security.

In traditional workflows, reference video materials are delivered to each dubbing studio. Watermarks and spoilers are applied to protect content from the risk of leaks and piracy. However, cloud computing offers technical innovations with far greater protection – watermarks are personalized for individual voice actors; two-factor authentication is employed and user interactions with original content can be tracked and audited.

| Implementation and Performance |

Since the launch of the cloud dubbing service in 2017, it has proved to achieve greater results for clients. Content owners are seeing the productivity of cloud dubbing projects increase by up to ten-times the traditional model – while maintaining quality standards.

Adopted by major OTT operators, studios and broadcasters, the service is now delivering over 150 hours of dubbed content every month.

For voice talent and dubbing directors, the platform is user-friendly without requiring extensive training. Subject to their chosen recording environment meeting ZOO’s stringent qualification tests, new voice artists can be on-boarded for projects quickly regardless of their location around the world.

| New Opportunities |

Reduced costs open up the potential to dub a wider range of content for more territories. Improved efficiency leads to shorter time to market for global launches. And by removing the requirement for a central recording studio per country, content owners have access to a larger pool of voice talent – offering greater variation and expertise.

Cloud dubbing is already transforming the localization process for TV and movie content owners. Ask ZOO Digital about it today.

NLE for remote production

ADN PLAY relies on DASH to offer a full remote experience. Access to your content from local or public network: video bandwidth adapts itself in accordance with the available network bandwidth.

Easy to use

For an efficient experience, ADN Play combines linear and non-linear navigation with its online storyboard.  Audio waveforms make segment selection easy.

Frame Accurate

ADN PLAY offers a frame accurate solution: timecode used in adaptative formats is the same as HR original timecode. That allows ADN Play to export frame accurate EDL to post-production environment when consolidated work is necessary.

Integrated solution

ADN PLAY is fully integrated to its environment and allows to send segments, or a list of segments, to any post-production platform available on the market.

Operative solution

In production since 2019

Awarded by French broadcast community in 2019 (Trophées du Satis)

Produce » Post Production » Post-Production Services » Creative services »

ADN PLAY ADVANCE offers you a turnkey solution to view all of your videos with precision, listen Dolby E and edit subtitles.

Frame accurate

It has been studied to offer the highest fluidity possible, while keeping frame accuracy.

To navigate, you can use both the native timecode information from the video or set a CTL (frame counter).

Variable speed playback (from -16 to 16 times real-time speed), including several slow-motion speeds and direct access to any frame of the video file lets you view efficiently large quantities of programs in record time.

AES stereo and Dolby E compliant

with a single click, you may select the audio channel (up to 8 channels) to listen to stereo or Dolby E channel.

Option:  ADN DASHBOARD solution let you create or modify audio versions (Dolby E from AES Stereo, AES Stereo from Dolby E, audio mapping…).

HD SDI

With the HD SDI interface, you can view your media on an external broadcast monitor. You thus benefit from optimal HD/SD rendering and may then insert the signal in any existing technical infrastructure.

Selection and export

ClipList module allows you to mark the relevant segments with a few clicks as well as identify them.

Project module extends this function to let you create a full post-production project, entering its key features (title, author, comment). You can then manage rushes from separate videos within this project.

Subtitling

With the Subtitling module, ADN PLAY Advance becomes a multi-format subtitles editor. ADN PLAY Advance will display subtitles synchronized with video, whether these come from an MXF file with embedded subtitles in OP47 format or from external subtitle files in STL/PAC format.

Each of the existing subtitles can be edited. You can easily amend content and correct any defects found within your subtitle (synchronization with video, content and color of text, vertical position, text size and alignment, adding or removing items).

Once all corrections have been made, a new STL file can be produced by the application.

When handling OP47 subtitles, an STL file can be extracted or conversely sent to the ADN ENGINE platform to produce a new MXF OP1a file.

This module also works in HD SDI mode.

 In résumé… ADN PLAY ADVANCE is a unique NLE solution to:

• -        view content (DNX HD, ProRes, XDCAM HD, IMX50, H264…)


• -        listen DOLBY E,


• -        select and export segment,


• -        manage and edit subtitling.


• -        Fully integrated to your workflow,


• -        JSON, XML, webservice, deeplink compliant
