Overview

If you're a professional video editor concerned about getting maximum productivity from Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and Adobe CS3 Production Premium, have a look at the Matrox RT.X2 product line – the ideal solutions for corporate communicators, event videographers, project studios, educational facilities and digital filmmakers. If you’re delivering your work in SD, Matrox RT.X2 SD is right for you. If you need to edit HDV or P2 MXF 720p and output HD, choose Matrox RT.X2 LE or Matrox RT.X2. If you want to use a DVI display for full resolution HD previews, you’ll need RT.X2.

The Matrox RT.X2 platforms go far beyond the capabilities of software-only editing and systems that combine Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and a simple I/O card.

The additional benefits you get with Matrox RT.X2 include:

·Many more realtime layers of video and graphics

·More effects in real time including color correction, chroma/luma keying, speed changes, blur/glow/soft focus, 3D DVE and much more
