The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing. ~ Socrates
Legacy media done well.
Pixels

Pixel loading for the MCTRL Series begins at a modest 2,300,000 for a quotidian display, climbs to an impressive 4,140,000 for something more sensational, and then blasts off to reach a staggering 8,800,000 pixels,

Which means you are good to go with the vast majority of high resolution displays for your spectacular new video wall.

Bit Depth

1-bit is black and white, but not grey. 2-bits adds in black-grey and white-grey. 4-bits doubles that to 16 shades of grey and 8-bits brings us to 256 shades and 16,700,000 colours.

The MCTRL Series starts at 8-bits, and offers 10-bits and 12-bits for 1,024 and 4,096 shades of grey for super smooth gradations and way more colors than your eyes can see.

Cards

The MCTRL Series relies on NovaStar Armor receiver cards plus NovaLCT Configuration Tools or SmartLCT, and V-Can video control software.

Armor receiver cards include the A5S Plus, A8S-N and A10S Pro which provide for stepless output scaling, low latency, 3D, pixel-level brightness and chroma calibration.

Dimensions

The MCTRL 4K is offered in an industry-standard 2U rack enclosure weighing just 4.6 kilograms with XYZ dimensions of 483 × 372 × 88 millimeters.

If your space is limited, or your display is perfectly well served with the slimmer MCTRL660 Pro, the height and depth of the enclosure is trimmed down to 50 and 356 millimeters.

Factory Warranty

NovaStar offers a 3-year warranty on all products purchased from an Authorized NovaStar Distributor and certified for use in Canada, the United States, or other corresponding markets.

The factory warranty and online technical support does not cover any NovaStar products purchased through domestic online discount warehouses or overseas bulk resellers.

Quotes

We love to provide quotes for clients, so don't hesitate to ask. Formal quotes can typically be ready for your consideration within a few hours.

At your request we can review your project with factory technicians to offer suggestions on solutions specific to your project. The rest is mostly just shipping details.

Manuals

NovaStar offers concise User Manuals in both quick-start summaries and in comprehensive formats that detail every function. We provide full technical specifications on every product we produce.

NovaStar hardware and software are further described and reviewed in depth on the NovaStar YouTube channel.

Operation

NovaStar's advanced hardware and software prioritize intuitive operation and rapid user adoption.

Our robust mechanical dials and digital interfaces enable intuitive control, dedicated setting selection, multiple pre-set configurations, and the user-centric design ensures a smooth learning curve for your team.

Performance

NovaStar products are built to perform under demanding conditions for many years.

Whether your installation is a single media player controlling a handful of receiver cards in a billboard, or a massive virtual studio creating a stage for your next theatrical release, you can count on NovaStar to be your reliable partner.
