More about Matrox DigiSuite

Your choice of software
The Matrox DigiSuite MAX platforms are compatible with a full range of editing, compositing, paint, animation, DVD authoring, and web streaming software. You can use the software that is part of the DigiSuite MAX bundles - Adobe Premiere, Inscriber CG, Ligos LSX MPEG, Sonic Solutions DVDit! SE and Sonic Solutions ReelDVD™ - or you can choose other packages that are more in tune with your personal editing style.

Deliver anywhere
The Matrox DigiSuite MAX platforms give you all the tools you need to output to tape, CD, DVD and the web. Edit once, then deliver anywhere - faster, easier, or more affordably than ever before.

A platform for every facility
All the DigiSuite MAX platforms offer broadcast-quality analog and digital video and audio I/O. They are compatible with virtually all standard video equipment and integrate smoothly into your facility. Each has specific features that address the needs of particular post-production environments.

DigiSuite LX MAX provides native-DV and MPEG-2 I-frame (up to 50 Mbps) editing. If you work primarily with DV source material, DigiSuite LX MAX is the solution for you. DigiSuite LX MAX is cost effective, and allows analog and digital sources to be mixed on the editing timeline.

DigiSuite DTV MAX provides native-DV, DV50, and MPEG-2 I-frame (up to 50 Mbps) editing. Both DV and DV50 sources can be combined on the same timeline. You get the benefit of both formats because you can use DV for video acquisition and higher-quality 4:2:2 DV50 as the preferred format for graphics, animation, multi-layer compositing, and other special effects.

DigiSuite LE MAX offers image quality that rivals uncompressed. It features variable M-JPEG data rates up to 15 MB/sec per stream (30 MB/sec combined). DigiSuite LE MAX also provides two channels of field-based variable-speed motion control. If you use a variety of analog and digital formats, such as Digital Betacam, DV, and Betacam SP, and want to maintain high image quality without investing in an uncompressed editing platform, DigiSuite LE MAX is right for you. Animators and compositors, in particular, will definitely appreciate the pristine image quality that DigiSuite LE MAX provides.
