Mojo Recording I/O Device by Avid
Are you a video producer? If so, you've probably encountered problems associated with converting analog video data to digital formats.
It's also likely that you've experienced problems trying to view or process video effects in real time.
The Avid Mojo is here to make your life easier.
By providing hardware acceleration and the ability to process analog video in real-time, the Mojo is an essential part of any serious video producers toolkit.
The Mojo has a number of input and output options, including S-video, component and digital SP/DIF.
It is built to handle transcoding and A/D conversion in real-time.
This is incredibly useful for video producers who need to see what their productions are going to look like when they're rendered out at 100% quality - as opposed to rendering out at limited resolutions, framerates or quality levels.
This is particularly useful for client facing work.
In terms of providing proposals for tenders and/or client requirements, the worst thing you can do is provide a rough draft of your finished video production.
Partial rendering (in terms of the effects used, the resolution or the frame-rate) can lead to either rejected tenders, or an inaccurate representation of your final product.
The Mojo is an interface, and a hardware acceleration device in one.
It allows a single point for your entire I/O interfacing, as well as taking the load off of your CPU for commonly performed video production activities.
This includes things like processing streams with multiple different resolutions / frame-rates as well as handling analog to digital conversion in real time.
Another benefit of the hardware platform is that it supports recording to a video / audio output stream simultaneously while an input stream (video and/or audio) is being monitored.
One of the ways that this could be used, for example, is to record the voice-over for a segement of video while the video / audio from an analog source is being played on the output channel.
The device loos incredibly sleek, with an anodised aluminium case.
It is slim-lined, with modest physical dimensions and very little weight.
It is the perfect solution for video producers who want a portable solution that they can take on the road with them.
The only possible set-back in this department is the need for an external power supply for the deviceto work.
The Avid Mojo is connected to the host computer using FireWire.
Another great aspect of the device is that it is compatible across multiple different platforms.
It can work on Mac OR PC, and is widely supported across a range of Avid recording software pacakges, including Pro Tools.
The Video I/O break-out cables are incredible effective in terms of the conservation of space.
Simple screw in the cable to either the input or output ports, and you instantly have access to a wide range of interface options.
Real-time conversion of analog video to a variety of digital formats is incredibly useful, especially when rendering your production edits.
You no longer need to worry about draft versions of your video productions ruining your chances of securing proposals - you can render out your edits in full quality.
In summary, the Avid Mojo is an essential part of any video producers hardware set-up.
