Many high schools and universities already have a SE-3000 in place. The popular 8 input version can be expanded to 12 or 16 inputs with built in HD/SD converters. Beyond that the SE-3000 includes Chromakey, DVE's, DSK's, and Flexsource,
a virtual M/E.

Available as either an 8, 12, or 16-input model, the SE-3000 is a purpose built, fast, and easy to use HD/SD live production switcher filled with an impressive number of features and functions. For example, it has a touch screen to select EFX, stills, and balance colors. Using a touch screen means that the operator does not have to remember effect numbers and can see what they are selecting. Additionally, it has dual multi-view outputs, chromakey, dual PiP, 3D functions, multi language support and a full size keyboard. The processing unit has a convenient, shallow front to back chassis, designed to accommodate mobile applications. An added interesting and powerful feature is the “Flex Source®” component, which is similar to having a second M/E. See below for a connection schematic.

The 8 input version (HD only) is ‘one card’ upgradable to the 12 or 16 input versions which includes 4 or 8 up converters, respectively. Every other feature is the same in all units.
