C2S Systems ‘Studio in a Box’

The C2S Systems Studio in a Box is a fully integrated multi-format (HD or SD) production facility in a wheeled portable flight case with additional flight cases to store cameras, tripods, dollies and a simple yet ingenious additional worktop.

It is designed to be easy to use, flexible and allow for extremely simple and fast setup in situations where an OB is impractical and gallery facilities are not available. The time from arriving on site to going on air can be as little as half an hour.

No cabling - no rigging - no mess.

The vision system uses a 12 input multi-format mixer which has three keys, four assignable frame synchronisers (including cross conversion), chromakey facility, animation/still stores, high quality 2D DVEs and 3 auxiliary outputs. It is monitored via a dedicated 32” multiviewer LCD. There is a 162 multiformat matrix to allow for assignable inputs and outputs to increase flexibility. The audio system uses a 16 input, 6 output digital mixer, balanced cabling and distribution and a 162 comms matrix with external beltpacks and local talkback panel.
Ancillary equipment includes;
Four HD Triax camera channels, two HD VTRs, HD waveform monitoring, HD picture monitoring, professional audio monitoring with PPM metering and final point audio embedding for transmission/recording.
