[Avid-L2] Re: Nitris vs Mojo

 

Speaking only for myself, the Mojo DX does everything I need it to do and is quite transportable.

One obvious area where it falls short, specifically Analog I/O -- can be inexpensively 'filled-in' with either BMD or AJA Mini Converters -- which handle all manner of 'SDI to Analog' -- and 'Analog to SDI' conversions. Depending on the manufacturer, you can purchase both of those Digital/Analog I/O boxes for somewhere around 1,000.

There was a rumor a while back about a possible firmware upgrade path that utilized the two SDI ports on the Nitris DX (which Mojo DX does not have) -- but I haven't heard anything further about that. And Mojo DX does not have LTC -- amongst other things.

Of course, a larger operation might prefer everything in one box versus using outboard gear. But I can't say I regret buying the Mojo DX -- except, of course, for its exorbitant price relative to what it actually does.

However, were I in your shoes and had the luxury of time, I'd make this decision after NAB.
