As a master distributor of Intelix products, Liberty AV offers the 11x2 device as part of its ongoing commitment to making the transition from analogue to digital that much easier. Packing the power of three different processors into a single RU chassis, the switcher/scaler/format converter provides switching between 11 different AV components, scales these sources up to 720p or 1080p, and converts signals to HDMI to bring seamless integration into any HD environment.
Outfitted with composite video, S-Video, component video, VGA, and stereo audio inputs, as well as DVI, HDMI, and optical audio inputs, the DIGI-SCAL-11x2 offers a generous template of control ranging from that found on the front panel to other choices of either IR, RS232, or a wireless remote that ships with each unit as standard equipment.
Built-in audio conversion found onboard is based around high quality analogue-to-digital and digital-to-analogue converters. All analogue audio inputs are interlaced with video inputs prior to being distributed out of HDMI outputs. With the use of optional circuitry, digital audio on the HDMI inputs can be converted to stereo and sent through analogue audio outputs.
Conversely, built-in video processing residing within the unit allows users to dynamically adjust picture contrast, brightness, saturation, sharpness, hue, noise rejection, and size.
