MTI Film CEO Larry Chernoff is standing at the booth reminding Leon Silverman (now of Disney) that he’s been syncing dailies since he was 18 years old, and in fact he’s still syncing dailies. They’re both in a cheery mood.

MTI is here—and on the Panasonic booth—with the newly released Control Dailies DA (for Digital Acquisition) bringing dailies workflow to P2, Red, Viper, Genesis, and the Arri D-21, as well as DPX media. This faster-than-real-time module can stand alone or work within the Control Dailies system in combination with Control Color and Convey. The DA Head module does ingest and decoding, Control Color handles ASC CDL-compliant grading and/or LUT application. With the new Convey modules, while the system synchonizes audio and lays off up to three HD or SD output streams, it can simlultaneously output DNxHD and DPX (with metadata and MXF wrapper) for editorial and DVD or Blu-ray for dailies review. Modules for ProRes and QuickTime are on deck for later this year.

MTI is also showing an extensive new version of Correct DRS—digital film restoration and finishing software. Some key new features of version 8 include a three-layer registration tool that does automatic alignment of RGB channels when restoring YCM seperation protection masters and a new paint tool that allows users to align a reference frame to a series of target frames.
