Disguise unveils GX 3+ media server

Disguise has announced the launch of the GX 3+, its most powerful media server ever. Built on Nvidia’s Blackwell GPU architecture and including a two-year Notch playback licence, the GX 3+ unlocks the full capabilities of Notch 1.0 for generative content playback - enabling video designers to create richer, more sophisticated and responsive event visuals.

With high generative graphics power and a 175-percent increase in Notchmarks, the GX 3+ will enable content teams, show designers and programmers to playback Notch blocks with their intended resolution, color fidelity and frame rate. Whether it’s for a concert, music festival or immersive installation, creators can unlock a range of features in Notch 1.0 - from advanced ray tracing and real-time global illumination to complex geometry, physics simulations and seamless multi-machine rendering.

The expansion to 96 GB of VRAM in the Nvidia Blackwell GPU eliminates memory bottlenecks that have historically constrained high-resolution productions. Combined with Notch 1.0’s new sparse multi-grid solver, this enables more detailed real-time particle systems and fluid simulations to be brought to life.

The GX 3+ also empowers users to up the complexity of their visuals, with the power to render forty percent more video layers on Designer projects at 4K DCI 30 fps when compared to the GX 3 - meaning users can build more looks for their shows before compositing them in real-time on the Designer timeline. Support for ACES, wide color gamut and HDR also enables cinema-grade color accuracy. This will result in richer, more cinematic content for the audience, as well as the ability to exercise greater content control on a layer-by-layer basis directly in Designer.

Users can run their content engine of choice locally on GX 3+ with Disguise’s RenderStream Local infrastructure, achieving lower video output latency, which is critical for live IMAG, AR overlays in broadcast or interactive effects in an immersive installation. GX 3+ supports ST 2110 video output via IP VFC, as well as ST 2110 video capture, enabling seamless integration into IP-based production environments.

Every GX 3+ unit comes with a two-year Notch playback licence and a selection of ready-to-use Notch blocks created by Disguise’s Creative Services team. These visuals will showcase the latest Notch capabilities, including elevated lighting fidelity and complex particle systems.

“Our GX range has already powered everything from Adele’s ‘Guinness World Record’-breaking Munich residency, to Coldplay’s multi-year ‘Music Of The Spheres’ tour”, says Disguise’s Tom Rockhill, Chief Operating Officer. “With the GX 3+, we are introducing a fundamental shift with the Nvidia Blackwell GPU that will enable creative teams to expand their horizons and redefine what’s possible when it comes to live entertainment visuals.”

Luke Malcolm, Co-Founder and COO at Notch, adds: “Notch 1.0 represents three years of forward-thinking development, built with next-generation GPU architecture in mind. Its Nura rendering system brings new levels of rendering fidelity alongside vastly improved scales. The convergence of the GX 3+ and Notch 1.0 creates a pivotal moment where creative possibilities leap ahead of current industry standards.” The GX 3+ is now available for pre-order and is expected to ship in Q4 2025.
