Network
Drastic“s media management provides the backbone for interchangeable, networkable devices. This open architecture allows the sharing of media, seamless random access control and monitoring throughout the network. Benefit from unrestricted shared simultaneous access to media with a Storage Area Network and MediaReactor file translation technologies.
Re-purpose, not replace!
It is not necessary to replace everything in the operation in order to work together. It is sufficient to simply connect all the tools you“ve become accustomed to using with the ClipServer and its unique file support technology. Industry standard protocols and non-proprietary media handling technologies keep everything connected and compatible.
