NewTek TalkShow VS 4000
TalkShow VS 4000 is the professional, multi-channel video calling system designed to simultaneously connect you with up to 4 remote guests—regardless of location—in real time and deliver distraction-free, broadcast-quality HD content with complete production control.
Multi-channel video calling, with broadcast-quality production control.
Broadcasters and media organizations no longer have to dedicate valuable time, effort, and resources coordinating the travel or technology to include multiple remote guests in their productions. Conducting multiple live, production-ready Skype video calls in distraction-free, broadcast-quality HD is no problem.
NewTek TalkShow VS 4000 is a multi-channel video calling production system designed for instant connection and live interaction with any combination or sequence of contacts that can be reached online over Skype. The 1RU rack mountable solution is equipped with standard hardware connections and NDI, NewTek’s innovative Network Device Interface technology, for seamless integration into any workflow—SDI, IP or a hybrid combination of both—to enhance productions with more compelling conversation, expert analysis and commentary, and in-depth discussions.
TalkShow VS 4000 offers the enhanced video calling capabilities of Skype TX and comprehensive, behind-the-scenes video, audio, communication, monitoring and control capabilities, TalkShow also provides the tools to ensure that every call looks great and sounds amazing.
