EDIUS NX for PCI Express is Canopus’ next generation solution for real-time video editing.
The same terrific functionality and features as the original EDIUS NX PCI-X
product, but in a new PCI Express card configuration! By supporting the PCI Express slots common on the new dual-core capable platforms,
the PCI Express version of EDIUS NX makes the speed and versatility of dedicated
NLE hardware more affordable than ever! Plus, the EDIUS NX PCI Express
version includes EDIUS Pro version 3.6 software which now supports the new JVC GY-HD100 &
Canon XL H1 camcorders!
Even the budget-conscious editor, who might not need HD editing and output capabilities right now, can
use PCI Express/PCIe and Dual Core technology and have an easy upgrade path to realtime HD editing/output via the
EDIUS NX HD Expansion Kit.
Canopus believes that for professional applications, you need end-to-end realtime performance. EDIUS NX
PCI Express (PCIe) offers the best possible realtime analog and DV editing experience from start to finish.
The onboard DV codec chip built into the EDIUS NX PCIe baseboard delivers exceptionally high quality analog and digital video input with specialized audio/video synchronization technology, filtering analog input during the capture process to clean up footage as much as possible. Since EDIUS NX
PCI Express (PCIe) does not feature hardware effects chipsets, the included EDIUS Pro 3.6 software scales up realtime effects performance automatically when you add more power to your CPU.
Furthermore, EDIUS NX PCI Express/PCIe gives you realtime, full quality, full frame rate analog and DV output, which allows you to preview your work in progress on the type of display on which it will ultimately be seen — a video display.
Most importantly, while EDIUS NX PCI Express/PCIe is an excellent choice for high-quality SD editing, it’s also ready for HD when you are. If you plan to work with HD formats in the future, such as HDV, but don’t want to limit your options with a conventional SD-only system, get EDIUS NX now and add the HD Expansion Kit for EDIUS NX (sold separately) at any time.
