The Imagestore 750’s integral audio mixer provides advanced audio processing with 16 audio channels, de-embedded from each of four video inputs, together with up to 32 channels of AES. The audio channels can be mixed, shuffled and modified before being embedded into the video output or made available as AES.

The Imagestore 750 is designed for the play-out of channel branding graphics, and can offer dual DVEs, automated character generation, EAS support, clock insertion, and four independent keyers for insertion of internally stored graphics or external signals. It also offers easy selection between SD and HD at 1080i or 720p, at 50 Hz or 59.94 Hz.

The Imagestore 750 integrates with Miranda’s Xmedia Suite template-based graphics workflow tools. It can be controlled by the multichannel PresStation remote control panel, or by the Xpanel “soft” control panel.
