Product Overview
Overview
The Avid Pro Tools MTRX Dual SDI/HD/3G Card is a high-performance expansion module designed to integrate professional video workflows directly into your audio production environment. By adding this card to your MTRX system, you bridge the gap between high-definition video signals and Pro Tools | HD audio, allowing for seamless synchronization and audio management in post-production.
This card transforms the modular MTRX interface into a powerful hub for video post-production, providing the necessary hardware to handle embedded audio within SDI streams without requiring external converters or complex routing workarounds.
