NEW Green Hippo Hippotizer Karst+ MK2
Description
Perfect for smaller events and tours, the NEW Green Hippo Hippotizer Karst+ MK2 is a compact 2U media server built for reliable show playback and flexible video output workflows. It combines tour-proof hardware with impressive performance, letting you run two 4K outputs with confidence, or handle smaller single output generative events, all from one rackmount unit.
Please choose the Output Type by clicking 'Select Options'.
Show-Ready Playback and Control
Hippotizer V4 and V4+ features are designed for hands-on operation during production. Real-time playback control makes it easy to adjust content attributes on the fly, while the integrated media management system streamlines loading and organizing media so you can move from prep to show faster.
Flexible Output, Mapping, and Pixel Workflows
For system configuration and display routing, Hippotizer’s output management and mapping tools provide the flexibility needed for live events and touring rigs. SHAPE supports 3D projection mapping workflows, and PixelMapper is built to map many thousand light points efficiently for LED and pixel-based designs. Output options are selectable as HDMI 2.0 or DP 1.2, with 2 production outputs available.
Networking, Sync, and System Integration
For multi-server environments, HippoNet enables control of multiple units from a single ZooKeeper, and dual 1Gb network ports support show control and media workflows. The Karst+ MK2 also supports Genlock for synchronized output and includes software EDID emulation (with hardware EDID emulation available on HDMI).
