What does Curator do?

Curator is designed to add value to your content and enable users to efficiently fulfil tasks such as desktop browsing, media annotation, editing, review and approval. It is a complete solution that can efficiently ingest, encode or transcode, at low bit-rate, proxy SDI or file-based media, for concurrent use by multiple users on a standard IT network. Whatever the source of the material, Curator is guaranteed to be frame accurate at all times, giving the user an unparalleled VTR experience including jog shuttle control with audio scrub, search on Timecode, frame step and FF & FR at speeds of up to 32 times.

“Curator allows communities of media professionals to achieve collaborative workflows in a fast paced, live production environment ensuring immediate access to all incoming media and archive content.”
