Desktop Transfer Station
What is it?
The Codex Desktop Transfer Station is the hub of your file-based workflow. It can be easily configured to automatically provide a full set of deliverables – everything you need for your production and post, from viewing copies to archives. And it can produce them all in less time than traditional systems take to make a single copy.
Who is it for?
It can completely manage a wide range of broadcast productions (s3d, multi-camera episodic tv, drama, light entertainment) and digital motion pictures. Multiple productions can be handled on a single system, and it is designed for easy integration into the editing/vfx facility. It can even be directly connected on set or location.
How does it work?
The Desktop Transfer Station holds material on Datapacks, and uses the Codex Virtual File System to deliver shots in multiple industry-standard formats, seamlessly to archive tape, disk or network. It feeds any post-production workflow, including native-mode files that editing-systems can use with no importing at all.
