The RTX2 is like a mini-Axio, with the same real time effects, the ability to play multiple streams of native HDV in real time, and the same top-notch integration with Premiere Pro and After Effects.
Limitations are that it doesn’t have SDI, doesn’t do uncompressed (although the fact that it does compressed HD is a distinct advantage), and, like HDV, works with 1440 rather than 1920 pixels per line.
System costs are reasonable, and adequate performance can be achieved with a striped two drive SATA set.
One nice feature is the inclusion of a DVI connector that allows direct digital monitoring of the output. My system is set up with two 26″ 1920×1200 LCD monitors, and I switch the right hand one between the Premiere bin and the HD output with the monitor’s input select switch. This saves some money and desk space.
The system is very stable, and the native HDV file handling produces great quality and small file sizes. It’s nice to be able to monitor HDV video while you are capturing, and audio input metering is helpful as well.
