Abit develops interface for Jog/Shuttle control

Abit has upgraded its Present-it automation system to allow users to take advantage of a Jog/Shuttle control device, designed to make control easier and quicker when previewing clips and setting in and out points.

Originally developed for NRK, the Jog/Shuttle itself is a precision optically encoded rotary wheel, manufactured by JL Cooper Electronics, which allows quick and easy scanning, viewing or cuing of digitized media. The operator will be able to control a device by assigning it to the Jog/Shuttle interface in the workstation software. The device typically would be a VTR or a transmission server
