Deployment environments

Timing architecture
matched to the production.

Aion supports individual productions and small facilities. Aion Enterprise extends the family into ST 2110 plants and high-availability infrastructure.

Aion and Stream Deck in a production control environment

Broadcast + post-production

Synchronize capture, overlay and edit workflows.

Generate a facility reference, route multiple timecode formats, embed LTC into video audio and provide network time to connected systems.

Live events + conferences

Coordinate show timing from front-of-house.

Run speaker countdowns, presentation overlays, backstage displays and Stream Deck transport control without returning to the rack.

Houses of worship

Bring professional timing to volunteer-operated systems.

Use approachable browser controls, role-separated viewing and integrated overlays for services, streams and multi-camera recording.

Recording studios

Bridge MIDI, LTC and picture timing.

Use MIDI Beat Clock, MIDI Time Code and LTC simultaneously while controlling the system from the DAW workstation.

Government + technical facilities

Distribute absolute time and IRIG formats.

Support GPS-disciplined NTP, PTP and IRIG-oriented equipment from one controlled appliance.

Small production companies

Carry one timing system across many jobs.

Move between multi-camera shoots, corporate events, studio sessions and timecode-overlay requirements without rebuilding the toolset.

Example architecture · live event

One rack unit, multiple operating positions.

Equipment room

Aion receives GPS, routes timing and provides the video-overlay path.

Front-of-house

The show caller operates timers through the browser and Stream Deck Bridge.

Backstage

TCV viewer displays show synchronized countdown and messaging.

Lighting / audio

Art-Net, MIDI-TC or LTC carry the same timing reference to specialist systems.

Enterprise deployments

When timing becomes facility infrastructure.

ST 2110 master control

Eight simultaneous overlay channels, SMPTE 2022-7 redundant 100G media paths, GPS-disciplined PTP and N+1 power in one 2U appliance.

Hybrid SDI / IP transition

Use hardware LTC and IRIG to keep legacy equipment synchronized while the facility migrates core timing and media to ST 2110.

Large venue production

Unify the video fabric, lighting timecode, scoreboards and legacy production systems around one GPS reference.

Facility timing distribution

Coordinate PTP, embedded LTC, hardware LTC/IRIG and network timecode across master control, studios, venues and technical departments.

Mobile production truck deployment environment

Aion mobile production

Take one universal timing appliance from one production to the next.

Standard Aion is designed for trucks, temporary control rooms, live-event racks and small production systems that need GPS discipline, universal timecode, video overlay and distributed control in a self-contained appliance.
