Grass Valley EDIUS Neo XL
Combining software and hardware, the Grass Valley EDIUS Neo XL package is all you need to begin your journey into the world of standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) video editing. EDIUS Neo XL includes Grass Valley EDIUS Neo NLE software, and the ACEDVio hardware board. Together, they not only provide you with high-quality analog, DV and HDV I/O, but you also enjoy the benefit of realtime, render-free output of analog and DV from your SD projects.

Edit with EDIUS Neo Software
While featuring a basic, entry-level range of tools and features, EDIUS Neo still provides you with powerful nonlinear editing features that you will find in all Grass Valley EDIUS solutions, such as realtime, multi-track, mixed format HD/SD editing, chroma keying, titling and DVD authoring.

Exceptional Mixed-Format Editing

Featuring unrivaled realtime video transcoding technology, EDIUS Neo performs conversion between different HD and SD resolutions, aspect ratios and frame rates — all in realtime. Edit 1080i on a 4:3 standard definition timeline, use NTSC together with PAL or combine them all into a 720/24p project without wasting a single moment on conversion or rendering. EDIUS Neo also features realtime playback and DV output of all effects, keyers, transitions and titles.

  • Includes ACEDVio Hardware

Unsurpassed Image Quality and Performance
EDIUS Neo features the revolutionary Canopus HQ Codec. Designed with Scalable Technology, this innovative codec offers the highest image quality and performance available today in any HD editing platform. The Canopus HQ Codec not only provides superior Luma and Chroma sampling of HD video, but also features an adjustable bitrate for increased video quality when capturing and encoding on high-performance systems.
Once you're ready to expand your knowledge and capabilities further, you can upgrade to Grass Valley EDIUS Pro* at any time.

* If upgrading, please note that EDIUS Pro is currently incompatible with Windows Vista
