Snell has introduced the Kahuna CF+ SD/HD multiformat production switcher. Housed in a single 6RU compact frame, the 2.5-M/E unit shares the same specifications of larger Kahuna systems, as well as a compact full-function control surface and intuitive interface. It supports external device control without the need for additional boxes, ensuring smooth integration into studios while reducing the cost, complexity and power consumption of the installation.

Features include 20 FormatFusion engines; a 24-crosspoint control surface; 40 multiformat inputs and 32 outputs; four channels of 3-D DVE; an eight-channel clipstore; 10 resize engines; 10 full effects keyers, including chroma key, enhanced effects memories and timeline; and macro control.
