Phoenix PLUS

UPGRADE TECHNOLOGY Inc.



You're obviously a professional if you are considering a 16K film recorder. You've been around the block a few times and seen all the toys that pass for one. You need fast, dependable film recording that provides true file reproduction without the objectionable artifacts that are so common. You need to see a difference in resolution at 16K even on 35mm film.

The Phoenix PLUS is what you've been waiting for.

The Phonix PLUS is quite simply the technologically most advanced CRT film recorder available. With the PHOENIX at it's heart, Phoenix PLUS boasts 7 Custom RISC Processors running concurrently, as well as a core microprocessor. In terms of imaging speed at 16K, no CRT recorder in it's price class, or any price class for that matter, even comes close. See our home page for a detailed comparison of imaging speed. No DAC lines ever. Smooth color gradients. The Phoenix PLUS comes with LUTs for both Kodak Electronic Output and Pro100 films for $24995, you select the module of your choice as an option (we don't see a good reason to force you to purchase a module that you are unlikely to use, so we've left it up to you). See our Specs and Pricing page for module pricing and other Phoenix PLUS options. Modules to accomodate nearly any film size and format are available. Full compatibility with all software RIPs. GPIB on MAC and PC.

Phoenix PLUS is the next generation of film recording

Phoenix PLUS is based around our revolutionary PHOENIX Engine. Designed with RISC-Based Parallel Multi-Processing technology, PHOENIX is the Hardware Engine that exceeds the performance of any CRT film recorder in speed and image quality. PHOENIX allows the Phoenix PLUS to image an RGB 16K file to 8x10 in under 9 minutes plus calibration time - to 4x5 in under 4 minutes. 4 Perf Cine formats are imaged to 35mm at 4K in just 24 seconds, while 8 Perf Cine formats are imaged to 35mm at 4K in only 47 seconds. Should you choose to shoot 8K Cine, 4 Perf formats to 35mm take just 47 seconds, while 8 Perf 35mm formats take 90 seconds. These are full resolution imaging times, not so-called "fast scan" modes that turn out to be just this side of useless. Check our Performance Summary for blazing fast imaging times with other film sizes and resolutions. Due to our exclusive algorithm, your calibration time will be around 10 seconds, and is not likely to exceed 30 seconds in the worst of cases, such as module swaps. Plus, this algorithm provides significantly better exposure control ensuring greater consistency and repeatability in the exposure of your films.

Say goodbye to DAC lines. The PHOENIX Engine has been specifically designed to eliminate this common and irritating problem which plagues the "best" of film recorders. The Phoenix PLUS is fully MAC and PC compatible on GPIB and has the ability to use just about any device specific software driver available. Brightness and contrast tables are also downloadable to give you an extra degree of flexibility. Contrast and brightness are adjustable directly from the front panel as well. Changing from one module to another won't slow you down either because our calibration is so fast. We have worked in our unique Automatic Self Pacing, so banding is a thing of the past. Now, with a MAC or a PC you can shoot full quality
Cine right from your desktop for a fraction of the outsourcing charges that you've become accustomed to paying.

We will shoot samples from your own files for you to examine.
Our image quality will astound you, guaranteed.

Our goal is to provide you with straightforward expectations,
the highest possible throughput and quality,
at the most reasonable price possible.

PHOENIX...the future of film recording.
