Key Features

Built for live events and rental staging applications

It’s the small details in CorePlay that make life easier in live events and rental staging applications. With a complete hardware solution, there’s no risk of operating system updates disrupting a show — Analog Way manages the platform, so CorePlay will just work.

Turnaround time in the shop is minimised with fast, simple and secure procedures to reset units to factory defaults and optionally wipe media storage. The integrated 1TB SSD provides fast and reliable local media storage, supporting efficient content deployment between shows. This helps prevent content from one customer being carried over to the next.
