Real time for moving quickly and efficiently

Thrasos Media utilized a main and backup 4x4k server to treat a 4480x900 Stage LED Floor, 4-1040x832 US LED Screens,  6-384x512 Floor Sponsor decks and a 4 sided temporary scoreboard that was 1200x1080 per side.

SMODE controlled all of these sources providing IMAG both treated and untreated for the concert performance.

Show control and latency

Peter Shay, programmer at Thrasos Media, utilized BitFocus Companion to trigger SMODE for different part of the shows on top of us using SMPTE to drive the main parts of the timeline.

Thrasos Media utilized custom servers with RTX8000 and DELTACAST Input cards in order to get low latency IMAG manipulation and heavy texture for the LED floor.
