Slow Motion Server – Professional Broadcast Recording Systems
Slow motion servers are essential for live sports production, instant replay and high-speed content capture. We stock new, used and ex-demo models ready to integrate into your broadcast workflow.
A slow motion server handles the acquisition, storage and playout of high-frame-rate video for live television. Whether you're capturing fast-action sports, athlete interviews or multi-camera live events, these systems let production teams record at frame rates far beyond standard broadcast and play back at real-time speed for dramatic effect. EVS solutions dominate the market for reliability and flexibility. Buying used or ex-demo equipment lets you access proven technology at a lower entry point, while new systems come with full warranty support. All units are tested and ready for deployment. Contact us to discuss your frame rate requirements, storage capacity and budget—we'll provide pricing and lead times for immediate or future delivery.
FAQ
What frame rates do slow motion servers support?+
Frame rates vary by model and configuration. EVS systems typically support 50fps, 100fps, 200fps, 400fps and higher, depending on resolution and storage architecture. Contact us with your specific output format and speed requirements for exact specs.
Can I use a second-hand slow motion server in a live broadcast?+
Yes. Used and ex-demo systems are fully tested and operational. They deliver the same replay and slow-motion performance as new units. We verify all equipment before sale. Warranty terms differ between new and used—ask us to explain coverage for your purchase.
How much storage do I need for slow motion recording?+
Storage depends on frame rate, resolution and clip length. Higher frame rates consume more drive space. We can help you size a server based on your expected recording volume and retention policy. Request a quote with your production schedule.
What's the difference between buying new versus ex-demo?+
New systems carry full manufacturer warranty and latest firmware. Ex-demo units are lightly used, fully refurbished and cost significantly less—ideal if budget is tight and you need proven, reliable equipment immediately. Used stock varies; contact us for current availability.
