The Datavideo SE-1200MU is a 1RU rackmount HD switcher designed for medium-sized productions. It supports multiple control options, including switching over IP, external control, or via the RMC-260 control panel. In addition, the product includes a software GUI, making remote and local operation flexible for a variety of live-production setups.
The SE-1200MU gives you professional video processing and on-air effects. Specifically, it provides 10-bit processing for higher-quality signal handling. You can apply two downstream keyers (DSK) and two picture-in-picture (PIP) generators, and use a dual chromakeyer for compositing. Moreover, the switcher comes with pre-saved animated stinger transitions and virtual set backgrounds, so you can add polished visuals without creating assets from scratch.
You can control the switcher in several ways. First, you can switch over IP for networked control. Second, you can use external control devices. Third, you can pair the unit with the RMC-260 control panel for a simple, physical interface. The RMC-260 is designed to be intuitive for both new and experienced users, helping operators switch sources quickly during live events.
Use the SE-1200MU in medium-sized live productions, such as small studios, houses of worship, corporate events, and multi-camera broadcasts. The combination of multiple HD inputs, multiple outputs, chroma-keying, PIP, and built-in animations helps you manage multi-camera workflows while enhancing the visual presentation.
