Datavideo SE-1200MU 6 Input Switcher with RMC-260 Controller

I installed this in our church a few weeks ago. Everyone who uses it loves it. With the optional user interface panel, it is easy for most people to figure out without a lot of instruction. The build quality is good and the control surface is large enough that everything can be labeled. I especially like it because the control panel is connected to the rack mount electronics by a single RS-232 cable (plus power) This means if someone decides the video operator's position needs to be moved, all I have to do Is get a longer cable. With other switchers I've looked at in this price range, all inputs and outputs come to the control surface, which makes for a messy installation and a real problem if you decide to move it. My only regret is I wish it was available with all HDMI inputs. All our sources are HDMI, so I had t buy some relatively inexpensive converter boxes to change them to SDI. The ones I used came from another well known manufacturer of this type of video equipment and cost less than $60.00 each.

Great switcher. We use it every day in the studio. Control panel have 9 users buttons preferences. With this you can preset key (1 and 2) DSK and logo or bug. Also we are using inputs 5 and 6 for key & fill for Lower third title generator. I highly recommend this equipment.

not good
