K2 Dyno Replay System

The Grass Valley™ K2 Dyno™ Replay System is a powerful, cost-effective application addressing the need for replay control and highlight generation in file-based live productions. Ideal for events such as sports productions and OB vans, the system is an efficient solution for replay in many environments such as studios, including the replacement of legacy tape-based operations. By implementing Gigabit Ethernet networking, common file wrappers, continuous FTP bandwidth, and standard IT storage connectivity, the K2 Dyno Replay System works without costly software and hardware add-ons to manage and move content throughout production environments.

Complete Workflow Solution—The K2 Dyno Replay System is a complete workflow solution that addresses preproduction, on-air operation, and post-production requirements. It is easy to pre-load material and metadata before an event and quick and easy to walk away at the end of an event with all your material on industry-standard removable media.

Easy to Use, Easy to Learn—With just a few hours of training, even inexperienced operators can be ready to handle slo-mo replays, create clips, and build highlight packages on-the-fly. The color touchscreen interface and high-quality T-Bar and buttons offer a user experience unmatched in the industry.
