// Demo studio · East Rutherford, NJ

See it working before you buy it.

Varto’s East Rutherford facility is a working studio and control room where buyers evaluate production equipment and workflows before they commit. Tell us what you are considering; we will confirm what we can demonstrate and set up the room around your workflow, in person or as a live remote walkthrough.

// What a visit is for

Evaluate the equipment, the workflow, and how it fits together.

A demonstration here runs on working systems in a real room, not a display wall, and we prepare it around the decision you are making.

The Varto control room: multiviewer wall and switcher consoles

01 · Compare

Compare before you choose.

See switching, replay, cameras and control running, and ask how the options differ for the way you produce.

02 · Test

Run your own workflow.

Bring your rundown, graphics or media and see them on the systems you are considering, not on a canned reel.

// the room itself

The studio floor, monitoring, and the racks.

One facility, three spaces: a pre-lit studio floor with a green cyclorama under a lighting grid, a control room where the monitoring and switching sit, and a separate equipment room holding the racks and production systems.

// what is installed here

Production systems you can try here.

A demo wall shows you a product. This room lets you work the systems: cameras and tracking, production and replay, virtual sets, the network underneath, and the transmission path out. A partial tour of what is installed here.

01 · Cameras and tracking

// How a visit works

Three steps, and the third one is the fun part.

01

Tell us what you want to evaluate.

Name the equipment or workflow. We confirm what we can demonstrate before you visit and prepare the room around it.

02

Come to East Rutherford.

195 Hackensack St., East Rutherford, NJ. Driving is easy; by train it’s NY Penn to Rutherford station via a Secaucus transfer, and a short walk from there.

03

Drive the gear yourself.

Bring your own media, graphics, or rundown if you want the demo to be your show.

Remote option: a live walkthrough online, same room, same systems, your questions steering it.

The same studio and control room are also available for production rentals. Studio rental →

// Straight answers

Questions we hear every week.

Can we run our own show as the demo?

Yes, and it’s the best version: your rundown, your graphics, your media on the actual systems. That’s how a demo becomes a decision.

How long should we plan for?

An hour covers a focused question; teams comparing workflows should plan longer. We’ll size it when you book.

Is this a sales pitch?

It’s a working room with an engineer in it. You drive; we answer; the quote comes later if you want one.

// The room is ready

Bring your workflow. See it run.

Tell us what you want to evaluate, in person or remote. The quote comes later if you want one.
