Traditionally, editing stations work on local or remote shared storage platforms and it is possible to access contents only via the editing systems. Consequently, each editor only has access to material that he directly controls. MANTRICS offers a more efficient workflow by enabling users to share contents and allocate work. This infrastructure, totally web based, favours the contemporary work of multiple operators, improving efficiency and increasing profitability. Furthermore, you can edit directly from your desktop or from the remote disk avoiding the need to be in the editing room.

MANTRICS permits the user to create new content using an intuitive user-friendly interface designed for quick metadata insertion and clip creation; this user-interface is based on a time-line that accommodates audio, video, text and graphics. Offering many innovation features, the interface expediates tasks, for example the "speaker track" lets you determine the duration of a given text , which is a great help when cutting the corresponding video. Once the rough editing is finished, MANTRICS exports the media files and, when required, also an EDL which can be saved in the most common formats to for the final cut.

MANTRICS supports direct integration with editing applications, giving post production operators a chance to take advantage of a combination of third party applications. Thanks to the integration with different applications, MANTRICS allows, for example, the user to control content quality. The material, whatever format it is in, can be ingested, controlled for quality, selected according to given criteria and then passed to the editing application.
