Overview
AirCleaner-2 is a solid-state, all-digital video and audio delay machine for use in live-to-air television broadcasts and online webcasts. AirCleaner-2 is designed as a protection against "wardrobe malfunctions", spoken profanities, or any type of unwanted video and audio content. AirCleaner-2 offers multiple operating modes with the ability to conceal video offenses with an auxiliary safe video source, matte image, or a defocused live image. AirCleaner-2 will conceal audio offenses with an auxiliary safe audio source, jumbled audio, channel swaps, or a mute.
AirCleaner-2 can be operated with either one or two users. In the case of two-user operation, the total program delay internal to AirCleaner-2 can be divided between the two users (in any proportion desired).
AirCleaner-2 operates in HD (1.5Gb/s and 3Gb/s) and UHDTV1 (12Gb/s) video formats and is equipped with 2 HD-BNC video inputs, 2 HD-BNC video outputs, and 1 looping reference. AirCleaner-2 handles 8 channels (4 stereo pairs) of AES/EBU audio for each video I/O stream and 16 channels of embedded audio in the SDI I/O streams.
AirCleaner-2 also features a single stereo analog audio monitoring output on a 3.5mm jack.
