Extra Program Versatility from NEW RCA TS-llA Switcher The TS-llA is a "nine-input" switcher designed to handle composite or non-composite video switching for color or monochrome. Two rows of push buttons feed a manual fader assembly; a third row feeds a preview channel. A program transfer switch is provided to interchange the preview and fader busses with the output busses so that the fader section can be used for previewing fades, lap dissolves and superimpositions. This makes it possible to use the fader channels for rehearsals while the preview channel handles the "on-air" signal. The fader assembly feeds a mixing circuit and three output amplifiers which are a part of the TS-llA, eliminating the need for installing elaborate distribution amplifier systems external to the switcher. The new switcher is free of microphonics and low frequency tilt and bounce, so that a stabilizing amplifier need not be added as part of the switching system. For further information about this exclusive RCA development get in touch with your RCA Broadcast Sales Representative. In Canada, write RCA Victor Ltd., Montreal. The TS-llA Switcher is supplied with an RCA console housing (MI-26266-B), a TM-6B master monitor and power supplies to form a complete versatile system.
