The core software *axle 2014 is the latest edition of axle’s award-winning media management software. Simply point axle at the media files you want to manage and it automatically creates low-bandwidth proxies you can then access from any web browser. Using the simple browser interface, it’s easy to search, comment, mark, approve, and annotate your assets from any location. There’s no need to move your media files or change your system setup.

For optimal system performance, axle Video recommends running axle 2014 on a dedicated Mac Mini. This affordable software which includes five-user license pack costs $1,695!
axle Gear provides for all the tools for mastering your video content. *axle Gear combines two Mac mini 2.6GHz quad-core Intel i7 CPUs in a tightly-coupled configuration with axle and Telestream software to create an optimized media management appliance that takes only 1U of rack space. Telestream allows axle to handle more video formats, and the dual-CPU architecture allows transcoding and viewing to take place on different systems, delivering incredible performance. The system includes two Gigabit Ethernet ports, two Thunderbolt connections, two FireWire 800 connections, and eight USB 3.0 interfaces. Working storage is provided by dual Fusion drive subsystems, each 1 terabyte in size. Multiple options are available from axle’s resellers to expand both the system’s I/O and its working storage.

Use axle’s management capabilities to find your media and collaborate with your network of editors and producers, then export into Adobe Anywhere for editing. Once editing is complete, use axle’s metadata tagging to catalog your clips, and the approval feature to share your media with non-Anywhere clients who can comment on and approve the clip remotely.

Xpress is flexibly configured between file-based ingest, file-based and HD-SDI baseband ingest, or HD-SDI ingest only. With a standard web browser, ingests can be monitored as they occur, and ingested material is logged through the mxfSPEEDRAIL Xpress user interface. Using the same browser, users can search and browse the material, or launch Telestream transcoding through the axle Gear user interface.
