UltraStudio Mini Monitor and UltraStudio Mini Recorder will be shown on the Blackmagic Design IBC 2012 booth in Hall 7, Booth H20.
UltraStudio Mini Monitor and UltraStudio Mini Recorder are two separate products, one for recording SDI and HDMI video, and the other model for playing back SDI or HDMI video.
The UltraStudio Mini Monitor and UltraStudio Mini Recorder are extremely tiny designs that are perfect for portable tasks that don’t require both capture and playback in a single device. Their lower cost means the customer can choose to add recording or playback when needed. A good example is when monitoring using NLE software such as Apple Final Cut Pro X, Adobe® Premiere® Pro CS6 software, or Avid Media Composer when the customer just needs monitoring when editing, the UltraStudio Mini Monitor would be the perfect choice. A customer who only needs simple recording for recording files from professional video sources can choose the UltraStudio Mini Recorder for great quality, at the lowest possible price.
UltraStudio Mini Monitor and UltraStudio Mini Recorder feature advanced high quality video technology allowing customers to go on location for uncompressed and compressed capture and playback tasks at the highest 10 bit SD/HD quality.
With easy plug and play and incredibly fast transfer speeds of Thunderbolt technology, UltraStudio Mini Monitor and UltraStudio Mini Recorder can be moved easily between computers and can capture from decks, cameras and live video sources, and output to monitors, projectors, media servers and more. This is perfect for editing, compositing, graphics production and unlimited broadcast and post production situations where the highest quality video and true versatility are demanded.
UltraStudio Mini Monitor and UltraStudio Mini Recorder are both fully compatible with Final Cut Pro X, Adobe Premiere Pro CS6, Avid Media Composer 6, Adobe® After Effects® CS6, Adobe® Photoshop® CS6 and more. Also included is Blackmagic Design’s Media Express software.
“UltraStudio Mini Monitor and UltraStudio Mini Recorder let you work anywhere because they are extremely compact and are powered from the Thunderbolt connection,” said Grant Petty, CEO, Blackmagic Design. “You can simply plug into any Thunderbolt enabled laptop or a desktop computer and start working. With support for high bandwidth formats up to 1080p60 these are easily the most advanced capture and playback solutions that are small enough to fit in your pocket. There is nothing more portable!”
