MediaMaster 6 significantly expands the software control options
Europe - ArKaos has released ‘the most significant features update in recent years’ for its MediaMaster realtime video control software platform, MediaMaster 6.
This MediaMaster feature update unlocks multiple new features and offers 50% more performance, power, and speed compared to previous versions - taking creativity and imagination to new levels, enabling users to produce the most spectacular high impact shows, says Arkaos.
The new Remote Player is one key feature - a cue-based programming tool especially designed for those working on long term and permanent installations and other fixed environment scenarios.
Remote Player is a network-based media player allowing the control of multiple servers from a single point on the network. A central programming hub can control cue lists that can be allocated to one or more separate MediaMaster entities in the network. The cue lists can be triggered manually or run via external triggers.
MediaMaster 6 significantly expands the software control options. It brings compatibility with the popular Elgato Stream Deck AND adds two new DMX fixture profiles - Layer Extended 2.0 and Layer Full 2.0 - which can control up to 112 DMX parameters per layer, available with the MediaMaster Pro licence.
For full flexibility, MediaMaster 6 significantly increased the number of available layers. MediaMaster Express doubled from 12 to 24 layers while MediaMaster Pro provides 48 layers.
Bringing even more power to MediaMaster’s layers, Single Layer Transitions add a vital new tool with massive potential, allowing crossfading between two visuals on a single layer.
In addition to a broad group of popular codecs, the software is expanded further to run the streamlined proprietary ArKaos patented SAGA codec, guaranteeing the best performance, maximum number of visual playbacks and ultimate visual quality with 10-bit definition per colour and an Alpha Channel.
Upgrades are available from MediaMasters 4 and 5 to 6 as a one-time payment with guaranteed free updates for the next 12 months included.
