Analog Logo and Text Inserter

LogoSTAR 300-A - Moving Logo & Text with Effects

(order part #LGST-300-A)

One look at the LogoSTAR 300-A, and it’s clear Keywest Technology has elevated the bar for logo inserters.

Available as an analog version, the LogoSTAR 300-A allows users to fly their logos across the screen and add non-linear effects, such as bounces based on time variables, and digital video effect-style zooms and explosions from an easy-to-use, intuitive graphical user interface. The LogoSTAR 300-A also supports 32-bit color depth –so users can even give their logos a chrome sheen.

Using a nonlinear editing approach, a user can plot or graph logo motion with variables, such as time, trajectory, depth, perspective, and special effects.

The LogoSTAR 300-A also comes with two-line text scripting, where one line is reserved for time, date and temperature, the other line allows the insertion of instant messages. The same sequence effects that are available for logos can be applied to text lines.

All of this is controlled with the LogoSTAR-300 editor software that enables comprehensive scheduling of each sequence. You may schedule logos for top and bottom of the hour, on the “9s”or any specific time using our built-in master control module. Alternatively, you also have the choice to trigger logo sequences using our Instant Logo feature or optional external Contact Closure/Serial Device (option).

The LogoSTAR 300-A comes complete with a built-in downstream analog NTSC/PAL keyer.
