Avid announced the availability of Maestro™ | Live. Designed to meet the dynamic needs of live television sports productions, Maestro | Live offers data driven graphics, video playback and sports enhancements, in a single solution.
Maestro | Live was created specifically for the unpredictable nature of live sports events. It enables the operator to respond quickly to the changes that take place during live broadcasts.

Ideal for prime-time productions, Maestro | Live supports both 1080P and UHD.
“Sports broadcasters face the challenge of engaging audiences in new and innovative ways and need a solution that is economical, powerful, and easy to use,” said Alan Hoff, vice president of market solutions at Avid. “Maestro | Live delivers with a system that handles video and UHD-quality graphics and enables sports broadcasters to deliver stand-out productions that move at the pace of the game they’re covering.”
As each sport has its own specific requirements, Maestro | Live enables users to easily create controllers without any programming or scripting. Maestro | Live’s simple drag-and-drop methodology enables the user to quickly and easily address the changing needs of each sport’s production and turn around projects faster, at a lower cost. Out of the box, Maestro | Live comes with ready-made controllers for major sports such as soccer and basketball.
