FlexTally
The standard package of FlexTally contains one station unit that connects to a video switcher and four lamp units that are to be attached to each camera, each lamp illuminates automatically according to the switching operation. The Tally Lamp System can be used for recording or live streaming with multiple cameras. Without a professional broadcasting studio camera setup, on camera performers or presenters have no way to know which of the multiple cameras is active. Using a tally lamp system, an indicator lamp called a “tally lamp” is set near the lens of each camera and the tally lamp with a pilot lamp to show which camera is active.

Since its launch, FlexTally has been well received by professional and individual users around the world for its ease of use and simple operation. It is possible to connect directly to Cerevo’s LiveWedge switcher without going through a router. In addition, FlexTally is compatible with other brands switchers*1 such as Blackmagic Design’s ATEM series, NewTek’s TriCaster series, as well as other switchers that support GPIO-capable connections.
Furthermore, vMix software switcher vMix is now supported by FlexTally. Combining the software switcher and FlexTally allows for an easy way to deploy multi-camera live streaming to further enhance production quality.
