"Classic LSM vs LSM-VIA – What’s Really Changed in EVS Replay?"

If you’ve been in a replay truck before, you know the feeling:

That chunky controller, those metal buttons, muscle memory kicking in at 200 BPM.

That was Classic LSM — raw, fast, legendary.

But the future? It’s already here. And it’s called LSM-VIA.

So what’s the real difference?

🖥️ The interface?

Classic was strict and fixed. VIA is modular and touch-responsive. You build your own workflow, not just follow someone else's muscle path.

🎞️ The way you manage clips?

VIA gives you real-time visibility, drag-and-drop playlist control, color tagging, and metadata that works for you — not against you.

🧠 The mindset?

Classic trained your memory. VIA rewards your logic. It’s not about remembering banks — it’s about thinking in events, context, and speed.

⚡ The pressure game?

Both systems are fast — but VIA is built for pressure, future workflows, and cross-server agility. It’s not a replacement. It’s a transformation.

🚨 The point is this:

You’re not just switching tools.

You’re switching eras.

Classic LSM made us great.

LSM-VIA will take us further.
