The tapeless server allows loop recording and functions such as replays, slow-motion, non-linear editing or streaming while recording.

The server is controlled by Multicam(LSM) or IPDirector software. With the Multicam(LSM), instant replay of any live camera angle at variable speed is possible.

The server inspired the XS model, dedicated to specific studio environments and controllers.
