Sinclair Selects OverDrive APC For 3 Facilities

Sinclair Broadcast Group has purchased Ross Video’s OverDrive for three facilities.

Sinclair, headquartered in Hunt Valley, Md., will launch automated productions in Texas, Maine and Tennessee this summer. The adoption of OverDrive Automated Production Control came after a full review by Sinclair of available technologies.

“After carefully researching numerous news automated production systems it became clear to us at Sinclair Broadcast Group, that Ross Overdrive and the Vision switcher was a smart choice,” said Mark Nadeau, director of TV production, Sinclair Broadcast Group. “From Overdrive’s flexible user-friendly template building process, its well thought out touch screen user interface and the power-packed Vision switcher with its open architecture, we can interface with the peripheral tools that we choose. We are confident that we have given our directors a system that compromises nothing as we transition to automated news production.”
