Grass Valley Offers Huge Incentives to Upgrade Kayaks to K-Frame Switchers

“This is a great opportunity for our Kayak customers to move up to a switcher they’ll love even more,” said Greg Huttie, vice president, switcher product line, Grass Valley. “With this incentive program and the fact that all of our switchers share a familiar and intuitive interface, there’s never been a better time to make the change. Our solutions are designed with input from TDs and engineers who know what’s important in the field.”

As part of this program, all Kayak software features requiring a K-Frame license will be matched at no additional charge, so customers can still protect the Kayak investment made years ago. In addition, any hardware for additional I/Os or M/Es can be ordered as options on the new devices.

Karrera K-Frame S-series switchers combine ultimate mid-range performance, along with proven workflows and simplified control of complex productions, with multiformat support including 1080p and 4K/UHD. Offered as two system packages, with 3 M/Es or 2 M/Es, Karrera switchers deliver unmatched creative freedom for highly produced content and are now available with IP I/O for SMPTE 2022-6 connectivity.

GV Korona K-Frame S-series switchers also combine ultimate mid-range switcher performance, along with proven workflows and simplified control of complex productions in two system packages, with 2 M/Es or 1 M/E. GV Korona has a smaller footprint that’s perfect for studio, mobile and venue environments and offers a choice between two new control surfaces with a built-in touchscreen menu system, innovative touchscreens in transition areas, and a K-Frame S-series video processing engine.
