Based on the Quasar Engine hardware platform, the Quasar Engine RPS brings many of the features and functions normally managed by the Master Module within the surface to the engine itself. This creates a standalone mixer without the need for an actual XR or SR surface, and relies on the included Quasar Soft and Quasar Cast products as the HTML5 remote interface. It requires two network connections to the Livewire switch: One for the engine, and one for Quasar Soft surface. A USB connection is provided for optionally connecting Quasar SR control modules.
