Echolab has released the new SuperBox module, which lets users of its Overture series production switchers put as many as six windows onscreen at once.

This plug-and-play solution simplifies news and sports production, allowing for simultaneous display of commentators, reporters or program guests from different locations within one picture.

Echolab's SuperBox module board and firmware are designed for SD Overture systems, and their functionality is accessible via the switchers' new SuperSource crosspoint key. SuperSource is a user-configurable custom layout that can consist of up to six sources using multiple internal keyers, available through a crosspoint button. With this enhanced keying capacity, SuperSource makes it easy to transition to and from a multibox shot.
