Leader Instruments brings Eyeheight’s legalEyes to the Americas

Eyeheight’s legalEyes full 10-bit-processing legalizer.

Leader Instruments Corporation announces a co-operative relationship with UK-based Eyeheight Ltd. The agreement centres on Eyeheight’s legalEyes video legalizer and its unique KARMAudioRT option which provides automatic real-time control of perceptual loudness and true-peak audio level.

“Eyeheight co-exhibited the new legalEyes with us at NAB 2012 in April,” comments George Gonos, President of Leader Instruments Corporation. “We were greatly impressed by the performance and build quality as well as the ease of operation. The legalEyes control interface is highly intuitive whether driven from the front panel or via the included Java softPanel. Visitor response to the product demonstrations was very positive. legalEyes complements the Leader Instruments product range and the solutions we already carry from Cel-Soft, NTT Electronics, Phabrix and Trilogy.”

“Leader Instruments is renown for the excellence of its test and measurement technology and for its very high grade pre-sales and post-sales support,” adds Eyeheight Sales Director Martin Moore. “legalEyes was designed for fast and efficient operation in live or near-live content-production, presentation and playout as well as in post-production. It is fully compatible with SD-SDI and HD-SDI standards throughout the Americas. legalEyes also interfaces easily with the Leader product range.”

Eyeheight’s legalEyes automatically detects and corrects any parts of a video signal that do not conform to industry-agreed component RGB, YUV or composite color space levels. LCD pushbuttons with backlit legends guide the operator quickly through the legalizer’s various control modes. These include RGB, YUV or composite mode selection, clipping level, soft clipping knee, luma and chroma gain, black level, and hue rotation. Six user memories are available to store group settings. The KARMAudioRT option seamlessly adjusts system gain across all channels to maintain the loudness limit while preserving the audio imaging.
