Choose Your KONA:


Choose Your NLE:


Adobe® Creative Suite® 6 Production Premium software is the high-performance toolset with everything you need to create productions for virtually any screen. Avoid workflow bottlenecks with tight integration between Adobe Premiere® Pro, After Effects,® and Photoshop®; easy project exchange with other NLEs; and amazing performance optimizations including the Adobe Mercury Playback Engine. Efficient video and audio workflows make it possible to work at the speed of your imagination. Manage footage from conception to completion with Adobe Prelude for on-set logging and ingest and Adobe SpeedGrade for color grading and finishing. Deeply integrated and efficient, CS6 Production Premium gives you tools that help your work flow. With CS6, Adobe has implemented a new SDK architecture called Adobe Mercury Transmit, which allows the AJA plug-in to have more direct access to the core software. Additionally, users will now use native Premiere Pro sequence presets in order to use their AJA hardware. This results in a much more consistent experience for users.

Or, choose Master Collection...


Adobe® Creative Suite® 6 Master Collection software is the ultimate design environment for realizing your creative vision. Use industry-leading tools with unlimited creative possibilities, precision, and power to capture and develop your ideas. Deliver for print, the web, tablets, smartphones, and the silver screen. Build standards-based websites and mobile applications, design for the latest platforms and devices, and work with pristine-quality video in native formats. Intuitive interfaces and blazing-fast performance allow swift work on your most complex projects. Create amazing interaction, tell stories, and inspire your audiences with complete experiences that go anywhere. And it’s all yours, for one great price.

KONA also works seamlessly with these fine NLE's:



The current family of KONA cards support Avid Media Composer 6, NewsCutter 10 and Symphony 6 with the addition of Avid Open I/O enabling support for third-party audio and video interfaces. With KONA, Avid editors can have access to very cost-effective, high quality video I/O.

 


Extend Your Connectivity with KONA Breakout Box
The optional breakout box and cables allow KONA cards to integrate easily into rack environments, enabling quick access to all video and audio connections without having to get at the back of the tower computer. Additional functionality over the standard breakout cable comes in the form of additional audio connections and monitoring jacks.



 

Powerful Motherboard from ASUS!

The ASUS Workstation Series is the ideal foundation for a powerful PC. It delivers awesome power, dependable performance and unmatched multiple I/O scalability for the most demanding tasks and future upgrades. The ASUS Workstation Series intelligently reduces operating noise and dissipates heat through advanced and environmentally friendly methods to accommodate user needs. The Intel® C602 Chipset is the latest single-chipset design that supports Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 processors for dual LGA 2011 sockets. It improves performance by utilizing serial point-to-point links, allowing for increased bandwidth and stability. Additionally, the C602 comes with two SATA 6Gb/s and eight SATA 3Gb/s ports for faster data retrieval, doubling the bandwidth of current bus systems.

The motherboard supports the latest Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 processor family with dual LGA 2011 sockets. Memory and PCI Express controllers are integrated alongside quad-channel 8-DIMM DDR3 memory and 80 PCI Express 3.0 lanes. This provides great graphics performance with superior energy efficiency.


New TSUNAMI FORCE Chassis by Thermaltake!

  • Performance cooling made quiet:  one top 200mm exhaust fan, one front 200mm intake fan, one side 200mm intake fan and one rear 140mm exhaust fan.
  • Hinged side panel to enable easier opening of the side door and access to computer for maintenance or upgrade.
  • Dramatically improved cable management. User no longer "hides" the excessive cable on the back, the Level 10 GT features numerous holders designed into the chassis for cable management.
  • Five hot-swappable hard drive bays, each with its dedicated backplane to support hot-swap. Hard drive mounting supports both 2.5" or 3.5" drives.
  • Connectivity array. Four USB 2.0 ports are conveniently located on the front bezel including a pair of audio ports. Two USB 3.0 ports (Internal 20 Pin Connector) and one eSATA port located on the top.
  • Water cooling ready - 120mm or 240mm radiators can be easily attached to the top side of the chassis (top 200m fan needs to be removed)
  • Fan speed management control embedded. ColorShift fans can be easily controlled through controls on the top.
  • Fully black-powdered interior.
