Burst Pixie-FS Frame Store TBC Time Base Corrector
The Burst Pixie-FS is an extraordinarily compact Frame Store/Time Base Corrector (TBC) unit that leverages micro miniature electronics to deliver professional video processing capabilities in a package the size of a standard deck of cards. This full-featured 8-bit frame synchronizer includes comprehensive proc amp controls with adjustable settings for gain, color, and timing, making it ideal for video production environments requiring precise signal correction and enhancement. The versatile dual-standard design allows seamless operation in either NTSC or PAL formats, providing flexibility for international production workflows.
Designed for professional video applications, the Pixie-FS effectively corrects timing errors in video signals while providing advanced processing capabilities including Y/C-to-composite and composite-to-Y/C transcoding. The integrated 4-line adaptive comb filter and anti-aliasing input filters ensure exceptional signal quality with minimal artifacts, while the genlock capability enables perfect synchronization with other video equipment in broadcast or production setups. Despite its remarkably small footprint, the Pixie-FS delivers performance comparable to much larger and more expensive frame synchronizers, making it an ideal solution for space-constrained environments or mobile production units.
