Delivers Perfect Dailies and Finishing Workflow for RED 8K Footage
AUGUST 20, 2019 – ASSIMILATE – San Jose, CA – Assimilate today announced that Scratch 9.1 now supports AJA KONA 5 audio and video I/O cards, allowing digital-cinema creators to tap the finishing solution with KONA 5 to output 8K 60p video via 12G-SDI. The company simultaneously announced Scratch 9.1 support for AJA’s Io 4K Plus I/O box with Thunderbolt™ 3 connectivity, which joins other Scratch 9.1-compatible AJA solutions T-TAP®, Io 4K, KONA 1 and KONA 4.

This partnership continues with Scratch 9.1 supporting AJA’s flagship products for desktop and mobile I/O,” said Jeff Edson, CEO at Assimilate. “The performance and output quality of both the KONA 5 and Io 4K Plus are unparalleled in our industry and we’re proud to offer our users the highest quality 8K SDI monitoring possible.”
