Central to any system is the Master Station or HD Station. The Master Station is a high-end
Windows®- or Linux®-based PC designed to accommodate real-time interactivity in a client-
attended or supervised session. You can add a Lustre Station to improve the efficiency of your
pipeline.
Master Station —
Includes the full Lustre toolset and is designed for GPU-accelerated sessions
where the colorist works together with the cinematographer. Contains an extensive creative
toolset for more elaborate visual design and grading using up to 4K resolution and 16-bit files
and for completing tasks like dust removal, conforming, rotoscoping and capture/playout.
HD Station —
Cost-effective GPU workstation for conforming, preparing, grading and
mastering short-form and long-form HDTV projects, as well as HD film projects. Input up to
10-bit 2K and output HD and SD.
Lustre Station —
Tasks that do not require the direct intervention or supervision of the
colorist can be efficiently handled by a Lustre Station. Multiple Lustre Stations can work in
parallel to increase throughput and can be used for tasks such as dust removal, preparatory
work, fine-tuning creative sessions, conforming data from EDLs, updating editorial changes
using change lists, and mastering to different formats using the real-time deliverables function.
