Broadcast Pix recently announced the Slate G Series, which enhances and replaces its current generation of live integrated production systems, at the same price points. The Slate G Series has a new Intel quad workstation that houses the Slate video processing boards and is powerful enough to be upgraded to future 3Gbps 1080p boards. The quad workstation also boosts the Slate’s built-in clip and graphics stores to HD and upgrades its built-in Inscriber CG to HD. The Slate G Series is currently shipping and its 3G upgrade is expected later this year. Previous Slate system owners can download the new workflow software, and for $4,700, can swap their workstation for the new G Series quad workstation to enjoy HD clips and graphic support, as well as future 3G upgradeability. $11,900 (1 M/E models); $18,900 (2 M/E models). www.broadcastpix.com
